Adult Empire Parent Ravana LLC Joins FSC as Platinum-Level Member

LOS ANGELES — Ravana LLC, the parent company of Adult Empire, GameLink, Popporn, SugarInstant and TLA Video, has joined Free Speech Coalition (FSC) as a platinum-level member.

Ravana brands, noted a rep, "helped create the adult video revolution in the 1990s, first through the sale of VHS, DVDs and sex toys and later as pioneers for online video streaming and membership sites. Innovative new platforms such as Popporn and SugarInstant have since expanded Ravana’s massive reach. Together the brands have won countless retail and film awards, and been a valued partner for the biggest names in the industry."

FSC Executive Director Michelle L. LeBlanc described the brands as "leaders in adult retail for decades."

"We look forward to working with Ravana and their storied brands to defend our industry’s rights, support its workers, and help build a stronger and more respected industry," she continued.

Ravana VP Colin Allerton noted the company has a long history in adult.

"We know how important it is to support institutions like FSC that help our industry survive and thrive,” he said. "Collaboration with strong partners has been key to our success as a company, and so we’re proud to join FSC and be a part of their important work."
