CDE Collision Damage Experts Opens Seventh Location

New store represents CDE's fifth in Illinois, seventh overall and third opening of 2012.

CDE Collision Damage Experts has announced the opening of its newest location in Addison, Ill., in the western suburbs of Chicago. The store is CDE’s seventh overall and fifth in Illinois. The Chicago-based CDE’s other two stores are located in Indiana.

“With our increased focus on expansion, the opportunity to acquire the
Addison facility was a necessary footprint to continue our growth," said Chuck Freiberg, president and CEO of CDE. "This
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.  

Added Chris Cardwell, CDE’s vice president of operations, “I’m extremely excited about this location and the opportunity to service our customers and insurance partners in DuPage County.”
