Chicago issues retail food license for Supermercado La Bodega on East 106th Street

Rule Changes Chicago, IL local

City records show a November 10 license and a passed inspection; they do not establish that the store is open.

Overview

Updated 3 hours ago

Chicago issued a retail food establishment license for Supermercado La Bodega at 3713 E 106th St on November 10, 2026. City records also show a license inspection passed on November 6, after a March 27 inspection was marked not ready.

The filing is one approval. It lists retail food preparation, fresh produce, general merchandise and perishable foods, but it does not show whether the business serves customers at that address.

Why it matters

The record shows how a single address gains a city food-retail license, and what that license does and does not prove.

Scenarios

1

New inspection record appears at Supermercado La Bodega

Possible Resolves by Nov 10, 2027

Discussed by: No named forecaster; this is a record-watch scenario.

Chicago's food inspection dataset would list a new inspection at 3713 E 106th St dated after November 10, 2026. That could follow a complaint, a routine cycle or a change at the business. The record would not by itself show whether the store is open.

2

License record changes before November 2027

Possible Resolves by Nov 10, 2027

Discussed by: No named forecaster; this is a record-watch scenario.

The city license dataset could show a status change, a revocation, an expiration or a new license category for the address. Any of those would alter what the November 10 record says. A change would not necessarily mean the business opened or closed.

3

Public listing shows Supermercado La Bodega open at the address

Uncertain Resolves by May 10, 2027

Discussed by: No named forecaster; this is a consumer-listing scenario.

A public business listing such as Google Maps or Yelp could show posted hours, user reviews or photos for Supermercado La Bodega at 3713 E 106th St. That would be evidence of retail activity, though not an official city record. The license filing alone does not establish it.
