CHATSWORTH, Calif.—The awards continue to pile up for Pipedream Products, and the latest accolade may be the sweetest of them all. At Spencer’s annual Vendor Summit held Wednesday night, Pipedream was honored with the coveted Vendor of the Year award.
The award recognizes and rewards outstanding partnerships, innovative contributions, excellent service in shipping and delivery, and strategic approaches to growing sales and profits. The novelty company was the only adult company to win the award in a pool of more than 300 mainstream, gift, and apparel manufacturers. For Pipedream CEO Nick Orlandino, this latest award was not only personal, it was 27 years in the making.
“This is one of the most humbling experiences in my life,” said Orlandino. “Ever since I was a kid loading trucks leaving for Spencers, I dreamed of partnering up with them. From the day I got my first product into Spencers over 20 years ago, to standing up on the podium and accepting this award, this whole experience has been a dream come true. It motivates me to push forward and work harder than ever to remain a valued Spencer supplier.”
The award is the most recent in a string of victories for the adult novelty giant, but winning mainstream awards is always a little more rewarding for Orlandino and the Pipedream team.
“It’s a testament to the amazing partnership between both organizations, as we work together and continue to create innovative products that make Spencers the mall’s premier destination for sexy fun,” Orlandino continued. “It’s been a pleasure collaborating with the entire Spencer team and we look forward to what the future holds.”
