Debuting Sunday from 11 a.m.-7 p.m., Love LA will host more than 35 top adult retailers and product manufacturers who will showcase their lines and sell their high-end merchandise at booths dotted throughout Love LA's showrooms located at local hot spots Boulevard3 and the Social Hollywood ballroom.
"Some smaller websites and other retail businesses can’t afford or make time to get to the larger trade shows," Denchasy told XBIZ. "This gives our industry the opportunity to meet with some of the finer manufacturers and like-minded community members in a relaxed, no-pressure atmosphere."
Denchasy said attendees from the B2B side of the sex toy/product industry will be admitted to the show free of charge, and every vendor is eager to speak with them. The two-hour cocktail hour, set aside specially for vendors and VIP ticket holders, also has been delegated as an ideal time for business to meet and greet away from the consumer crowd.
"I’m hoping quality relationships will form between everyone who participates," Denchasy said.
Denchasy also said that he plans to expand Love LA in the future to accommodate both consumer and trade purposes by extending it to three days, with one day set aside specifically for trade.
And regardless of how big it gets, Denchasy is adamant that Love LA remain an expo for only the businesses that meet the top standards for quality, value and sex-positivity.
"You’ll find no sunglasses, T-shirts or other low-quality paraphernalia," Denchasy said.
Any businesses interested in attending Love LA for trade purposes should contact Denchasy at (310) 999-1977 or email Love LA publicist Tyler Barnett of Barnett Ellman at tyler@barnettellman.com.
