<strong>Doc Johnson Enterprise:</strong><br />
Doc Johnson was born in 1976 when Ron Braverman purchased a very small company that sold adult toys along with gag novelties and rubber fishing items. When he realized that adult toys had a huge demographic without any real central supplier, he renamed the company Doc Johnson and worked towards becoming America’s most imminent producer of adult products. Since then, the Doc Johnson brand has grown and evolved. We started with a handful of employees, and now have a team of over 500 people in our factory in North Hollywood, California. The adult novelty industry has grown and evolved, but one theme that has remained constant at Doc Johnson is our strong commitment to American manufacturing. Today, we are the largest adult toy manufacturing company in the world with a facility that has six buildings that cater to every department from conception to shipping—and not only do we produce the majority of our products in America, but we also strive to create the most high-quality, innovative, and body friendly products on the market.</p>
