Executives cite inflation-driven consumer caution and plan loyalty program enhancements to sustain sales and protect margins.

Chipotle and peer chains have announced a series of digital coupon campaigns, including app-exclusive discounts and time-limited meal bundles, designed to draw budget-conscious diners back into restaurants.
