In 2019, Chipotle closed over 50 branches. The chain is actually becoming more popular, however, they have undergone a few heavy setbacks in recent years which has dented the company’s reputation. The restaurant was faced with some bad light in the public eye a few years back when customers got sick with E. coli during two outbreaks which were linked to the food they had consumed at Chipotle. Adding to the riskiness in 2019, a cyber-attack allowed the personal details of customers to be at risk. However, in 2019 they managed to open over 150 new branches- they must be doing something right.
