Chipotle

For Real

Chipotle does things a little differently. They use real ingredients, made in real kitchens, by real people. And that realness was present everywhere, except in their advertising. So we went all-in on the one thing that set them apart: their commitment to real. We pulled back the curtain to show the world exactly how different Chipotle is from its competitors.

Digital Sales Driver

When everything changed in early 2020 (looking at you, COVID-19) digital sales became the key driver for Chipotle’s business. We needed to show how easy it was to simply tap for real food, eat real food and repeat.
