Abstract:
The case examines the business model of the US based fast
casual restaurant chain, Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (CMG). CMG was founded by
Steve Ells (Ells) in 1993. The company, which initially sold burritos, was well
known for its 'made to order' food and use of organic ingredients. In the late
1990s, the company started expanding rapidly throughout the US. In 2001, CMG
released a mission statement called "Food with Integrity," which highlighted its
commitment to naturally raise meat, organic produce, and dairy products without
adding hormones. Apart from usage of organic ingredients, CMG's restaurant
design, marketing strategy and culture of the company played an important role
in its success.
