"The StorErotica Awards are one of the few nights each year when the entire industry gets to pause, look around the room and celebrate what we've accomplished together," says SE Magazine Managing Editor Kristofer Kay. "This business is built by innovators, risk-takers and entrepreneurs, and the people on this ballot represent some of the very best among them. Add a little beer, wine and good company, and you've got the perfect way to cap off a day at ANME.”
For 19 years, the STOREROTICA Awards have celebrated brick-and-mortar storefronts, distributors and manufacturers in the industry. The 2026 SE Awards will be presented in Southern California on Tuesday, July 14, as the SE Awards take center stage during the ANME Founders Show at the Burbank Marriott Hotel. Running from 6-8 p.m., the evening will bring together manufacturers, distributors, retailers and industry leaders for a celebration of the products, people and companies shaping the future of pleasure retail.
COTR’s Founder and CEO, Alicia Sinclair-Rosen, will be hosting the new Pink Carpet, interviewing guests as they arrive and take in the evening. From there, the spotlight shifts to the awards presentation itself, a breezy and laid-back affair hosted by COTR’s Sales Director, Kim Faubel, whose wit, warmth and deep industry knowledge have made her one of the business's most respected voices.
The ballot will be open from June 16 to June 29.
