Chipotle has built a new supply chain team and made several operational changes in order to stage a comeback after the restaurant chain's food safety issues reappeared in the form of a norovirus outbreak.
The CEO is relatively new to the company, coming on board just one year ago, but he's receiving wide praise for revamping back of house processes and being more open about the company's operations than former executives.
The company's old ways of staying "quiet and defensive" had harmed the brand.
Chipotle is on the right track, with multiple promising initiatives in the pipeline to drive a return to strong sales and earnings growth.
