This is not a drill. Everyones favorite make it yourself Mexican food chain has revealed in its earnings call this week that it has signed a deal with Postmates that will change a burrito addicts life forever. Although Postmates and other service have offered to deliver Chipotle for a fee, this is the first time the Mexican food giant has officially partnered with a food delivery service. Chipotles Chief Creative Officer had this to say “There have been a lot of people that have been delivering Chipotle through various services over the years,” the company’s chief creative officer said, according to a transcript of the call. “And we’ve tried to in a lot of cases shut them down, because we weren’t sure whether the quality was going to be sufficient or whether they were following our rules. This is different because we’ve made an official deal with Postmates and they have been delivering Chipotle for quite a while, too.” In a strategic business move Chipotle partnered with Postmates. Postmates is a service that guarantees delivery of goods within one hour of ordering. You can now order Chipotle for delivery in all 67 of Postmates markets. However there is one significant catch.
