CENTURY CITY, Calif. — Industry leaders East Coast News (ECN) and International Video Distributors (IVD) were named 2014 Distributor of the Year – Full Range by XBIZ at the gala awards ceremony.

Honoring the adult industry’s most influential players, the event took place at the luxurious Hyatt Century Plaza in Los Angeles. This marks the second year in a row IVD/ECN has earned this title.

In addition to the Distributor of the Year award, ECN’s Brand Manager Ken H. was named Marketing Executive of the Year at XBIZ’s 2014 Executive Awards, a ceremony that took place amidst the XBIZ 360 event series and honored the industry’s leading executives.

The award was presented by Standard Innovation’s Tori Parker, who said that Ken “has made a huge impact on the marketing within this industry.”
