C.E.D., Inc.

From its inception 25 years ago, CED Commercial AV, a Northbrook, IL based company, has been offering quality products at competitive prices. We run our business with passion and integrity. We believe in fostering long standing relationships with our customer base as well as our vendors. While most other CE distributors service single channel, C.E.D. has emerged as a leading Audio and Video supplier for many commercial electronics Dealers, Home Automation/Custom Installation dealers, Special Markets dealers as well as recognized e-Commerce companies across the nation. We have capabilities for supplying and installation.

Twenty five years later, we still embrace the same values and goals, and we believe that has contributed to sustained growth in our overall business, the customer base an the product lines we offer.

Over this period, C.E.D. has become one of the leading distributors of high-end electronics in the industry. As part of our ongoing development process, in 2010, we opened a branch in New Berlin, WI near Milwaukee to better service our Wisconsin customer base.

We remain one of the few distributors authorized to carry top of the line brands such as LG, Sharp, JVC and Polk under one umbrella. In addition, we have dramatically expanded our product offerings to include more Custom oriented products such as Polk Audio, Jamo, Yamaha, 2GIG, RTI, Panamax, SCP and Wyrestorm. Our state of the art showroom displays our entire product offering and it demonstrates all of the latest technology second to none. Our showroom is also available for our customers to use for client demonstrations, just make an appointment.

C.E.D. recently completed a new renovated Will-Call area that was designed to increase efficiency and provide an even better customer experience. This, combined with our state-of-the-art computer automated warehouse, ensures that our customer’s needs are always met quickly. For us at CED, no order is too big or too small. We ship numerous orders each day via UPS, FedEx, LTL along with our very own local delivery trucks for orders in the greater Chicagoland area. For our custom installers we offer jobsite delivery, a unique service that allows us to bring larger orders directly to the jobsite.

We have an onsite training facility where our Customized Sales approach takes the best of what each employee knows and improves upon it with insight from our vendors, partners and industry leaders.
