Christmas Tree Shops are a retail chain that started in Yarmouth Port, Massachusetts on Cape Cod in 1970 as a complex of three small stores; the Front Shop, the Back Shop, and the Barn Shop. The multiple store location, which was located on Route 6A, explains why the name is Christmas Tree Shops instead of Christmas Tree Shop. The chain's founders were Doreen and Chuck Bilezikian. Since the 1980s, the chain has slowly been expanding beyond Cape Cod. As of May 2011 the company has stores in eighteen states (including all six New England states), which have made it a multi-million dollar corporation, with large super-stores. Recent expansion for the chain has included stores in the Midwestern states of Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky, and Ohio. In 2011 its newest stores opened in Augusta, Georgia; Dallas, Texas; and Greensboro, North Carolina.
