Qdoba Mexican Grill is a very well structured company. In this paper we had taken a look at Qdoba’s history and saw how they came to be the company they are today. We also took a look their stock and saw how they are doing in the stock market and are the main provider for Jack In The Box. I talked about what its like to own a franchise, and showed you how much it cost to be an owner of Qdoba Mexican Grill. I explained why I always choose Qdoba over Chipotle, and that there isn’t too much of a difference between the two. For a brief time I talked about why I love to go there. Qdoba has done very well as a company and has many people who love their food. I hope that this has taught you a little bit more about Qdoba and why I believe it’s a great
Gatehouse Pizza had only been in business a few years. Similar to most restaurants that start out it had struggled financially. While most of the staff, made up of high school students, did not know of the difficulties, management did.

Chipotle Mexican Grill founded in 1993 by Steve Ells became known as the fast-casual dining in the restaurant industry (Hitt, Ireland, & Hoskisson, 2013). It was the first of its kind when Ells first opened his first restaurant and brought the idea of made-to-order burrito. The concept is so simple, and the consumer is in control of what ingredients goes into their burrito. “The immediate success from Ells’ first restaurant allowed him to repay the $80,000 loan that he borrowed from his father within a month of opening” (Hitt, Ireland, & Hoskisson, 2013, p. 71). Furthermore, this gave him the confidence to open his second restaurant in just two years.

The restaurant industry in the United States had annual sales of $ 631.8 billion and employs 12.9 million people in 2012. Even in times of recession there is little evidence that this industry has seen a decline especially in its fast food and quick service segment. But with a depressed economy with no immediate upward trend in the near future, majority of the customers indicated that they would either curtail their spending on eating or best maintain its current level which is certainly going to affect the future of many restaurants in the industry. Chipotle is part of the fast casual segment of the U.S industry with over 1,600 restaurants.
Imagine you are running behind schedule due to heavy traffic, but finally arrive onto campus with mere minutes to spare. You avoided road rage to suddenly notice that there is no where you can possibly park. If you have not had the pleasant opportunity to experience such a stressful scenario, then you are very fortunate. However, if you have experienced the hassle of overcrowded parking lots, then you are aware and can relate to the issues of this matter. The campus parking lots are utilized by both faculty, staff, and students for the duration of that day, but by night the lots are as a deserted island inhabited by only those that reside on campus. Shortage of parking spaces on a college campus is a hassle. Campus parking lots should be expanded and limited to various campus attendees as well as the implementation of regulations on parking pass renewals.

Competition exists in most industries, and it is considerably fierce in the restaurant business. This is especially true for the focus of this paper, Panera Bread, and the specific restaurant market it operates within, “Fast Casual”.

Traffic congestion is a condition on convey networks that occurs as use increases, and is characterized by more gradual speeds, longer trip times, and incremented vehicular queueing. The most mundane example is the physical utilization of roads by conveyances. When traffic demand is great enough that the interaction between conveyances slows the haste of the traffic stream, this results in some congestion. As demand approaches the capacity of a road (or of the intersections along the road), extreme traffic congestion sets in. When conveyances are plenarily ceased for periods of time, this is colloquially kenned as a traffic jam or traffic snarl-up. Traffic congestion can lead to drivers becoming frustrated and engaging in road rage.
