Chipotle closes- Avery Yoss 4th
Tomorrow, every Chipotle across America is going to close, for four hours. During those four hours everyone who is part of the Chipotle team will be participating in a nationwide food safety meeting. This meeting is taking place because of the recent E. Coli breakout causing many people to get sick. Profits have gone down ever since the breakout and it is unknown is Chipotle can make a full recovery.
This is similar to the progressive era when they had the meat inspection act. People were scared off, especially by the book "the Jungle." Today, with Chipotle, I think everyone is just to scared to try it again and Chipotle will definitely take a hit.
