Megalodon Distro, the Los Angeles-based company behind Sink Or Swim Sales (SOS Sales), is set to exhibit at the AVN Adult Novelty Expo (ANE) from January 20-22, 2027, at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas. The company, which manufactures and exclusively distributes its own line of sexual enhancement supplements, aims to expand its reach within the adult brick-and-mortar retail sector.

SOS Distribution at ANE

SOS Sales, also known as SOS Distribution, will be present at the upcoming ANE, an event described as a B2B gathering where the pleasure product industry connects. The expo, held at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, is scheduled for three days of business-to-business networking and exhibits. ANE is exclusively for qualified industry members, attracting over 15,000 trade attendees, including more than 1,500 buyers and retailers, and representing 250 brands. The event also draws over 1,500 media outlets.

Jorge Solorzano, VP and co-founder of Megalodon Distro, stated that the company started in 2016. In 2024, Megalodon Distro developed its best-selling product line, FUCK. Solorzano, along with business partner Hamed, identified a gap in the market for their products. Solorzano expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming ANE, noting that AVN has an "incredible reputation in the adult market." He indicated that the company's participation is to "see what it's all about."

Product Strategy and Market Focus

Megalodon Distro manufactures its own products and serves as the sole distributor for its offerings. This direct distribution model to storefronts allows the company to control its margins, which in turn impacts retailers' margins. Solorzano mentioned that the company does not utilize "any of the big distributors," citing the "razor-thin manufacturer margins" often required by such distributors.

The company's supplements are exclusively available at adult brick-and-mortar stores, distinguishing them from other supplements commonly found in convenience stores. Solorzano described their target market as "everyone over 18 who has sex." He emphasized the company's aim to "help" consumers achieve a "happy and healthy sex life." Solorzano also highlighted an educational aspect to their presence, stating that they are at events "not only to sell our products but also to educate," which can then be shared with store staff members.

The Adult Novelty Expo Landscape

The Adult Novelty Expo is a B2B event that features exhibits, interactive workshops, and educational sessions. It is held at Virgin Hotels Las Vegas, a venue located in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. The expo is designed for industry-only participation, with no consumers allowed. Exhibitor packages and sponsorship opportunities are available for brands looking to maximize exposure and increase awareness within the adult industry. The event aims to provide a platform for leading vendors and top buyers to connect.

In contrast to ANE, other large-scale expos, such as those organized by FAN EXPO HQ, cater to a broader audience, often with significantly higher fan attendance figures. For example, FAN EXPO New Orleans is projected to have over 30,000 fans in attendance from January 8-10, 2027, at the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. FAN EXPO Portland, scheduled for January 29-31, 2027, at the Oregon Convention Center, also anticipates over 30,000 fans. FAN EXPO Vancouver, from February 13-15, 2027, at the Vancouver Convention Centre, expects over 40,000 fans. MEGACON Orlando, from May 20-23, 2027, at the Orange County Convention Center, is projected to attract 195,000+ fans. These events demonstrate a different scale and audience focus compared to the industry-specific B2B nature of ANE.
