Who actually makes buying decisions at Chipotle?

Restaurant operations, finance, technology, supply chain, marketing, food safety, legal, and procurement all matter depending on the category. A store-equipment vendor needs operations and finance sponsorship; a loyalty or personalization vendor needs marketing, technology, data security, and guest experience alignment.

How is Chipotle organized as it scales?

Chipotle's company-operated model keeps core decisions centralized compared with franchised restaurant peers. That helps standardize technology and operations, but it also raises the bar for evidence: a system change needs to work across thousands of restaurants and a large hourly workforce.
