Random thoughts about Chipotle vs Qdoba...
I think when most people think of fast food Mexican places, both Chipotle and Qdoba usually come to mind. However, I think that Chipotle definitely has the four P's down - Qdoba, not so much. Product: Both sell relatively the same products - Mexican food. Qdoba however has some different stuff like taco bowls and soups! Price: Chipotle burritos are typically cheaper than Qdoba's - standard meat + rice + beans + cheese + salsa is ~$8.10 for Chipotle and ~$8.75 for Qdoba. Personally as well, Chipotle's burritos are more well structured and tasty! Promotion: Chipotle has the promotion game on lock down. They're everywhere I look on social media. Always collaborating with other celebrities or relevant companies, making their brand known. They also often offer discount days and what not for specific groups of people, such as college students! Place: Chipotle has their own building in South Portland, right across from the mall - not directly next to any crazy competitors...
