Mexican fast casual is the only dining category that doesn’t have a list of 20 mature competitors slugging it out for market share, CEO of Modern Restaurant Concepts John Cywinski tells Bloomberg Intelligence. In this episode of the Choppin’ It Up podcast, Cywinski sits down with BI’s senior restaurant and foodservice analyst Michael Halen to discuss Qdoba Mexican Eats’ growth opportunity and plans to accelerate new-store development to 100 restaurants a year. He also comments on Qdoba’s move to national marketing, margin-expansion opportunities, the health of the US consumer and the emerging Modern Market Eatery fast-casual chain.
