Chipotle to Expand to London, Names Bill Niman to Advisory Role

chipotle logo in black and whiteU.S.-based, fast-casual* restaurant Chipotle Mexican Grill announced yesterday that they will be opening at least one store in London by the end of 2009. Opening a location abroad has more complications for Chipotle than it does for other dining brands, as they have a policy of working with local farmers and ranchers in order to source their food locally, humanely and sustainably.

They also announced yesterday that Bill Niman, founder of Niman Ranch, will be joining the management team as the Sustainable Agriculture Advisor. His job will be to will help Chipotle to expand on its efforts to support sustainable agriculture and bring food from sustainable sources to the masses.

It sounds like Chipotle is working hard to do everything right. Now, if only they could open a location in Center City Philadelphia!

Have you ever seen one Compact Florescent Lightbulb in the place? Not at the ones I frequent.

You need to find yourself a new Chipotle. Mine makes meat-stuffed burritos that are almost too big to hold. Mmm.
