Chipotle (CMG) has only known high growth over the past decade. High growth in terms of new store openings, sales, and earnings. That’s primarily because of the company’s generous portion sizes and messaging of healthier ingredients to increasingly health-conscious consumers. But now, the argument could be made that Chipotle is heading into an interesting five-year period. The company is adding new technology to its restaurants to drive efficiency. It's expanding into new countries such as Mexico. And it’s picking up the pace of new menu offerings. All of this comes as new fast casual restaurant concepts sprout in Chipotle’s backyard. Consumers continue to be cautious about eating out as menu prices have risen. Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi discusses the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Chipotle CEO Scott Boatwright. Boatwright has settled into the Chipotle CEO job and will be tasked with driving the company forward in this critical period.
