All Episodes

November 1, 2025 • 2 mins

Chipotle's CEO reveals that younger adults are dining out less due to financial stress, leading to a decline in sales. The company is also facing issues with digital orders, ingredient availability, and cleanliness, causing customers to question the value of their meals. Chipotle's latest financial report shows a slowdown in sales growth and a decline in restaurant operating margins, with expectations of a slight sales decrease next year. This trend aligns with a broader pattern of fewer millennials and Generation Z eating out, as many struggle with monthly payments and sometimes skip meals to save money.
