Chipotle Mexican Grill Leverages Technology to Revolutionize Avocado Preparation
Chipotle Mexican Grill is piloting robots that assist in preparing avocados, enhancing efficiency in its California eateries.
Revolutionizing Guacamole Prep
The chain recently announced the introduction of Autocado, a sophisticated robot that can cut, core, and peel avocados in an impressive 26 seconds. This advancement reduces the typical human prep time, providing a significant boost in production.
Impact on Operations
- Human workers will still need to mash the avocados by hand.
- Chipotle's projected avocado use for the year is around 5.2 million cases.
- Considering the demand, this technology could alleviate labor burdens in restaurants.
Future Prospects of Technology in Restaurants
As this initiative unfolds, feedback from employees and customers will play a crucial role in determining the feasibility of broader implementation across other Chipotle restaurants.
