Sex Toy Company Gets N.C. Business Award (ROFL)
Sex Toy Company Gets N.C. Business Award

POSTED: 10:59 am EST December 23, 2005

HILLSBOROUGH, N.C. -- A sex toy and video mail order business, once picketed by ministers and searched by postal investigators, has been named business of the year in Orange County.

PHE Inc., the parent company of Adam & Eve, is a top citizen and a major taxpayer, said Margaret Cannell, executive director of the Hillsborough-Orange County Chamber of Commerce. The business has also helped with the local animal shelter and a family violence prevention center.

"We didn't have any problem giving them the award," said chamber president Robbin Taylor-Hall. "We don't look at some of the items they sell."

The company's product line includes videos and flavored sugar-free lubricants. Products are available only by mail.
