AdultToyMegaStore Wins 'Company of the Year' From New Zealand YES Alumni Awards

WELLINGTON, New Zealand — AdultToyMegaStore.com (ATMS) is celebrating its win as Company of the Year from the 2022 YES Alumni Awards held in Auckland, New Zealand on Thursday, July 14.

A rep noted the YES Alumni Awards were founded in 2021 and celebrate the achievements of alumni of the Young Enterprise Scheme (YES), which is "an experiential program where secondary students set up and run businesses. ATMS, which was founded by Nicola Relph, a YES alumnus, was a finalist alongside popular investment platform Sharesies, and networking platform Girlboss."

Relph described the win as "a testament to the ever-increasing acceptance of sex toys and sexual wellness in the business world."

“Being recognized in mainstream awards is truly humbling, but for us it’s about so much more than the awards themselves. This award represents the normalization of sex toys and their acceptance in the business world, and that's the greatest win of all,” Relph said.

"Sexual health and wellness are just as important as our physical and mental health. No matter who you are, who you love, or how you like to be loved, you deserve to have a happy, healthy and fulfilling sex life — whatever that looks like for you," she continued. "This is what keeps our team going each day, knowing that we’re making a difference through the shopping experience and education we provide, and we are so grateful to our customers, and to the rest of New Zealand, for being open-minded and helping us to normalize sexual wellness and pleasure."

ATMS was also recently a finalist at the Wellington Gold Awards, which recognize excellence in business in the region, added the rep; in 2021, ATMS became the first adult retailer in New Zealand to win a Wellington Gold Award, winning the Supporting Gold category which recognizes the best Wellington infrastructure and professional services providers.
