Customers filled several parking lots and waited in long lines to get a taste of what the new location has to offer. It was really helpful for the restaurant because now more people know about it and they would be curious to go and see what's going on there.

Consumer Decision Making- Perception (week 6)

Messages posted in the cups are help full for customers because they learn something new about company. Also, Chipotle is using napkins to put information for the customers. For example, in each napkin you would find information about to opened a burrito or sometimes there is information about sour cream. It explain how Chipotle's sour cream doesn't  have the hormone " rBGH ." This hormone is injected to the caws to produce more milk as they use to produce. However, Chipotle's farmers does not use it because they want to protect Chipotle's cattle and customers.

Consumer Decision Making- Perception (week 6)

When customers go to Chipotle sometimes they need some help to figure out what they are going to eat and it is when Chipotle helped them. People who work at Chipotle always try to be specific and clear in the way that they explain the customer what they might order to eat. Another way to let the customer know about what they should eat and what they are eating is by giving information posted in the Chipotle's to go bags. Ever time when you order an entrée to go, the company gives you one of about four or five artistic bags with a few sentences about the company's values. For example, "(Cartoon pig drawing, pig with speech bubble: "¡Viva la Revolución!") Okay pigs, it's time for us to get together and start fixing this system. We see the way that our pig friends get treated at their factory farms, and it's time we fight so all pigs can have the same rights we have! No more tight confining pens! No more antibiotics or non-vegetarian feed!!!!!!!! We can do it!" It is another way to let people know about Chipotle values, these bags have information about the animals raised, as well the beans, and vegetables that the company is using.

• Customers who are visited Chipotle had been extraordinary wondered about the food and they way how it's make, so that recoment Chipotle to their friends, family members and others. It is how Chipotle chain goes by one customer to others people and so on. Customers who had tried Chipotle want to their friends and others to have the same experience and to taste the delicious of the food served at Chipotle. A lot of customers are wondered about how the guacamole tastes and they liked, why? because, it is home made and fresh. Every single of guacamole portion that you eat is fresh and every day made.  

Consumer Decision Making-Stimulus(internal) (week 6)

Chipotle found the keys of its success that is serving food with integrity and the great customer services. Customers like to eat great quality in the meet and have a extraordinary experience in any place that they like to eat. Well, Chipotle has these characteristics giving quality, even if they don't expect it and acknowledge their customers about food with integrity. Customers want to know what they are eating and they like to see how the food is cook. Chipotle is proud about its free-antibiotic meat, because Chipotle's goal is to give to their customers the best flavor, taste in their food. Once, every customer taste the food, Chipotle is convinced that he or she would come back, why? because they'll taste the quality and freshness of what they're eating.

Consumer Decision Making-Need Recognition (week 6)

Chipotle has set itself a step ahead of the competition by catering to customers concerned about sustainability. According to Ells (the owner of Chipotle), Chipotle buys more antibiotic-free and vegetarian-fed meat than any other restaurant in the world. As a result, Chipotle’s meat tastes much better than anywhere else. It is why Chipotle apply its phrase "FOOD With Integrity," that is consisted by four different categories; animals are treated humanely, never given antibiotics, never given hormones, and animals are fed vegetarian.

Developing a Global Vision-Culture (week 5)

Chipotle is also worry about customer who are conscientious about the environment. As  we know there are some people who like s to eat at places who protect the environment. Thus, Chipotle's bags and napkins are 100 % paper recycled, it might see simple or without importance but believed or not people think about it before to enter to a place.  

 

Developing a Global Vision-Culture (week 5)

As we metioned before culture is very important to us as markets because there are many things to take in consideration. Chipotle is trying to get all the products 100 % natural and organic to satisfy its customers and people's culture. An example is Chipotle's menu, people whom for any reason, sometimes for religion can't eat meat, Chipotle has the capability to serve a delicious order without meat (vegetarian; burrito, tacos or salad).

Developing a Global Vision-Culture (week 5)

Corporate culture is a very integral part of the business as the company prides itself on its natural ingredients, responsible farming, as well community stewardship. This culture is passed on to customers, who are more likely to go out of their way to stop at Chipotle instead of a competitor because of the values they share with the company. All these values aren't always easy to implement and the company has struggled to find enough hormone free meat to supply their entire corporation. However, they have been able to at least roll out organic beef market by market and have a goal of completing this roll out in the next few years.
