Individual Project Instructions
MGMT 338
You have been hired by Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. (NYSE:
CMG) as they are considering
expanding internationally by opening locations in a new
country. Chipotle has already opened
some locations in Canada, Germany, France and the U.K., but
they believe opportunities exist in
other countries as well. As such, Chipotle has asked you to
compare two countries on a number
of factors and then make a recommendation as to which country
they should expand into.
Per Yahoo Finance:
Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc., together with its subsidiaries,
operates Chipotle Mexican Grill
restaurants. As of September 30, 2020, it operated
20. approximately 2,700 restaurants in the United
States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and Germany. The
company was founded in 1993
and is headquartered in Newport Beach, California.
Your paper and presentation should clearly address the
following steps, in order.
Section 1: Formal Institutions: Identify the political system,
legal systems, and economic
systems in both countries. Then discuss which country would
be more attractive to enter looking
at each of these three systems and why.
Section 2: Informal Institutions: Identify the dimensions of
culture that you believe may exist in
each country (Hofstede’s Value Dimensions) and be sure to
explain your selections based on
specific data/information you find. Because you are
considering whether to set up operations in
one of these countries, you may hire local employees, you may
try to sell to customers in each
country, etc. Then, make a recommendation on which country
would be more attractive to do
business in based on these value dimensions and explain why.
21. Section 3: International Trade & Trade Barriers: Identify the
GDP for both countries. Identify
at least one tariff and at least one non-tariff barriers that each
of these countries have in place, and
be sure to explain why these trade barriers may apply to what
you will be exporting. Then, make
a recommendation on which country would be more attractive to
sell into (export) and why based
on these countries’ GDPs and trade barriers.
Section 4: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI): Identify two
potential ownership advantages and
two potential location advantages for each country. Be sure to
explain why each advantage
(details) specifically applies to each country. Then, make a
recommendation on which country
would be more attractive to invest in (FDI) and why based on
these specific advantages.
Section 5: Foreign Exchange: Identify the current exchange
rate between each country’s
currency and U.S. Dollars. Speak to whether these exchange
rates have remained constant over
time or if they appear to fluctuate significantly. Then, make a
recommendation on which country
22. would be more attractive to invest in based on this information.
Section 6: Regional Integration: Identify any major trade
agreements both countries are members
of. For instance, the United States is a member of NAFTA.
Section 7: Entering Foreign Markets: Equity versus non-equity
methods of entry – based on
what you have learned in steps 1-6, make a recommendation on
which country to enter as well
as what specific method of entry to use and why.
Section 8: Post-Entry Recommendations: Based on what you
have learned in sections 1-7, in
order to successfully do business in this new country moving
forward, make at least two specific
recommendations to improve the marketing and human
resources functions of your operations in
this country.

1. South Korea or Russia
2. Spain or Australia
