." "We're fortunate that we've got such great partners getting us the Chipotle food we need to run our business."
The changing consumption has been beneficial to companies such as Freshly, a meal-delivery service, according to its CEO, Michael Wystrach.," Wystrach said the company was seeing "unprecedented demand." Yet Freshly has been able to continue sourcing its food without any supply chain breakdowns, Wystrach said.

"We have the largest food service supply chain in the United States," he said. "We have trucks. We have drivers. We have food, and we can step in and really help these retail grocers fill their shelves.", said one area of the food supply chain he is concerned about is the smaller food producers. He said Chipotle has many relationships with them as part of its commitment to "food with integrity.
