Industry Vet Al Bloom Partaking in EdenFantasys Interview

CHINO, Calif. — Al Bloom, CalExotics’ director of marketing and adult industry veteran of 40 years, is the featured guest on EdenFantasys Community Interview.

Bloom entered the adult industry fresh out of college working in adult video distribution and then moved onto video production and also took ownership of some video production companies along the way, including Caballero Home Video.

After over two decades on the video side, Bloom made his way into the toy market; starting with Doc Johnson in the early through late ‘90s, then moving onto his current job working as director of marketing for California Exotic Novelties.

“In his 40-year career, he has witnessed firsthand the beginnings of the sex toy market, and has been a part of its growth,” EdenFantasys said. “So, where is the business headed now?”

EdenFantasys’ Community Interview can be viewed here.

Bloom also will be awarding prizes to participants with his favorite questions. The prizes include the Couture Collection Inspire massager for first place, the Platinum Jack Rabbit for second place and third place will take home a Voila vibe.

The interview is open until Aug. 9 and the winners will be announced Aug. 13.
