location moves us west of the city, expanding our overall market. We’re very excited to be in this community, and committed to providing
unparalleled quality and service.”

CDE’s stores are located in South Chicago (Gage Park and Hometown); Lynwood, Ill.; Lansing, Ill.; Hammond, Ind.; Crown Point, Ind. and now Addison, Ill. This is the third location CDE has opened in 2012.
