MONTREAL - Eau Zone Oils & Fragrances, Ltd, parent company of Shunga Erotic Art, has just finalized a distribution agreement with Williams Trading Company to bring its line of adult cosmetics to the United States.
Ron Vaillancourt, marketing director for Shunga, called Williams Trading "one of the top leaders in the novelty market" and is looking forward to seeing where the distributor will take the Shunga brand.
"Williams Trading Company is a key player in the wholesale and distribution markets of all major brands of adult novelties, videos and DVDs in the U.S.A.," Vaillancourt said. "They have been in the adult business for over 35 years, and in that time, have grown into a major force."
Eau Zone's Shunga Erotic Art line is manufactured in Montreal, Canada, and uses shungas-Japanese erotic works of art from the 16th to 18th centuries-on its packaging. The collection boasts 13 categories of products in a variety of flavors and fragrances, including massage and heating aphrodisiac oils, body powders, massage cream and candles, and sensations balm, in addition to orgasm stimulation creams, lubricants, bath and shower gels, herbal supplements, body paints, and luxury love kits.
Rich Pyne of Williams Trading Co. told AVN Novelty Business the deal was finalized two weeks ago and that the distributor is excited about bringing on the entire Shunga line.
"We will be unveiling new products during the AVN Novelty Expo," he said. "Anyone who is interested in seeing the line or any of the products we offer can go to WilliamsTradingCo.com, sign up for free, and see everything we carry."
The Shunga line is already found in over 70 countries in adult specialty shops, high-end lingerie boutiques, high-end department stores, and perfumeries.
