Description: CMG Chipotle Mexican Grill September 26, 2025

Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE: CMG) operates a fast-casual restaurant chain that serves a menu of burritos, bowls, tacos, salads and related items, with a growing emphasis on “lifestyle” bowls and kid-focused meals. The brand also runs a digital ordering ecosystem-including an app and website-that powers delivery and curb-side pickup across its footprint.

Founded in 1993 and headquartered in Newport Beach, California, Chipotle now runs more than 3,000 restaurants in the United States and select international markets (Canada, France, Germany, Dubai, and the United Kingdom). The company’s expansion strategy continues to prioritize same-store sales growth (comps) and incremental unit openings, while leveraging its digital platform to capture a higher share of the total ticket.

Key performance indicators from the most recent quarter show comparable restaurant sales up roughly 13% year-over-year, digital sales representing about 65% of total revenue, and an average ticket size near $10.5. Labor and commodity costs remain material drivers, with pork and avocados tracking broader food-price inflation, while the fast-casual sector benefits from consumer preference for higher-quality, “food-with-integrity” concepts.
