A fast food provider from the US is looking into the possibility of expanding in the UK.
Chipotle has built its name on its range of burritos, as they offer an ethical and affordable alternative to quick meals such as burgers.
The company, which now has 800 outlets in the US, has prided itself on the fact that its ingredients are produced organically and naturally.
This, it said, has helped it to contribute positively to helping the environment, animals and the producers of the food.
As a result, it is hoping its business practices will endear it to British customers.
Steve Ells, founder of Chipotle, commented: "I am very encouraged by what I see in the UK.
"There is more awareness about organics and sustainability."
Speaking to the Times, he added that he was inspired to set up his own burrito chain after frequenting a Mexican restaurant in San Francisco.
Mr Ells revealed that he was drawn to burritos because they are a whole meal in one "convenient package".
