2011年16家增长最快的明星公司

墨西哥烧烤快餐公司

排名：第54位

连续在榜年数：3年

    一切都是从1993年的一个小饭店开始起步。现在，这家蒸蒸日上的“舒食”连锁餐厅（fast-casual chain，品质略好于快餐店的连锁餐厅——译注）已开出了1,150家分店，主要供应管够管饱的墨西哥卷饼和炸玉米饼，并正计划进军中式餐饮。

    Chipotle公司首次上榜时排在第83位，此后就一直拾级而上——2010年排到第60位，2011年排到第54位。去年，该公司称已经新开了129家分店（它计划到2011年年底开出145家）并获得了创纪录的利润，2010年利润进账达到180万美元。

Chipotle Mexican Grill

100 Fastest-Growing Rank: 54

Consecutive years on the list: 3

    It all began in 1993 with a single restaurant. Now, the booming fast-casual chain -- which serves up sustainably made burritos and tacos -- has roughly 1,150 locations and is planning a foray into Chinese food.

    Chipotle appeared on this list at No. 83 and has since been working its way up -- to No. 60 in 2010 and No. 54 in 2011. Last year, the company reported that it had added 129 stores (it plans to open as many as 145 by the end of 2011) and saw record-level profit margins, pulling down $1.8 million in profits for 2010.
