Two Greater Cincinnati pizzerias and three in Kansas City closed this week as the result of Chipotle Mexican Grill’s turnaround efforts.
Both Cincinnati Pizzeria Locale locations, at 9540 Mason Montgomery Road and Sycamore Crossing, were closed as the Denver-based company (NYSE: CMG) announced it would shutter five of its seven pizzerias along with 55 to 65 underperforming Chipotle stores. About half of the closings were expected to happen by the end of July.
