NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Calif.—New novelty vendor Polynesian Pleasures makes its official debut next week at the Adult Novelty Manufacturers Expo (ANME-Founders) after securing a partnership between its founder, industry veteran Valentino Tolman, and pleasure products manufacturer Doc Johnson for global distribution of the recently launched collection.
Tolman expressed his enthusiasm for the new chapter.
“I’m absolutely thrilled to be partnering with Doc Johnson to bring Polynesian Pleasures to retailers worldwide,” Tolman said. “This brand has been a passion project for me, inspired by my love for Tiki culture and the lush beauty and spirit of the Hawaiian Islands. Teaming up with Doc Johnson means we’ll be able to deliver these products with exceptional quality and get them into customers’ hands around the globe. It’s the perfect match.”
Doc Johnson, with its international infrastructure, sees Polynesian Pleasures as a strong addition to its expanding portfolio of premium brands.
“Partnering with Valentino Tolman on Polynesian Pleasures allows us at Doc Johnson to blend authentic cultural inspiration with cutting-edge sexual wellness innovation,” said Scott Watkins, vice president of sales and marketing for Doc Johnson. “By drawing on Valentino’s Polynesian heritage and decades of expertise, we’ve crafted a premium collection—from sea-inspired vibrators to artisan dildos and playful key-chain novelties—that delivers both a powerful sensory experience and a compelling story. We believe this line will not only captivate retailers with its distinctive branding and luxury positioning but also invite consumers to explore intimacy in a beautifully authentic way.”
Attendees at ANME will be the first to experience Polynesian Pleasures’ debut collection, “which promises a fusion of striking aesthetics, thoughtful design, and the tropical inspiration reflected in the brand’s name," a company spokesperson said. "This launch is poised to add new energy and diversity to the pleasure products landscape while providing retailers and consumers with fresh, high-quality options backed by trusted industry veterans.”
