BROOMFIELD, Colo.—Eldorado is proud to announce its CEO and founder Larry Garland will be inducted into the AVN Hall of Fame at the 2012 AVN Awards Show.
Over the years Eldorado has become one of the top international distributors in the adult novelty business offering more than 14,000 best selling SKUs throughout the world. As an entrepreneur and 37-year veteran of most aspects of the adult novelty business, Larry Garland is an invaluable asset to Eldorado and a key ingredient to its longstanding success.
"L.G." is a hands-on leader who loves what he does and always puts customers and employees first. Whether it's taking an active role during product meetings, riffing with the marketing team at a brainstorm session, or having the entire company stop on a dime to go above and beyond for a customer in need; setting the example for the Eldorado team is standard operating procedure for Garland.
"This is a real honor and a pleasant surprise," said a humbled and semi-shocked Garland. "This of course means a lot to me and Eldorado—it’s an unbelievable feeling to have this kind of recognition from my peers and I would sincerely like to thank everyone involved.
"Who knew I’d be inducted into AVN's Hall of Fame for a non-performing role?" he said with a chuckle.
In addition to heading up Eldorado since 1974, Garland is a board member of the Free Speech Coalition, and a vocal advocate for his local community. For the past several years, Eldorado has held fundraisers and food drives for the Community Food Share program, helping put Thanksgiving dinner on the table for thousands of Colorado families in need.
Garland’s AVN Hall of Fame induction follows his 2011 "O" Lifetime Achievement Award from July.
Garland will be indicuted into the AVN Awards Hall of Fame during the AVN Awards ceremony, scheduled for Jan. 21, 2012, at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. For more information, visit AVNAwards.com.
