NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Sept. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) today announced it is introducing a family TikTok challenge called #ChipotleSponsorUs to celebrate the launch of the Group Ordering feature on the Chipotle app.
Chipotle and new creator collective The House Nobody Asked For (www.tiktok.com/@thehousenobodyaskedfor) will reward five (5) families or small friend groups who showcase why they should be sponsored by Chipotle on TikTok with free burritos for a year. Each person (up to 5 people) in the winning families will win their own free burritos. Through September 13, all fans can unlock Chipotle's new Family Extra offer, one (1) free large chips and large guac, by using the promo code "4FAMILY" at checkout when they order four (4) or more entrées on the Chipotle app or Chipotle.com.
#ChipotleSponsorUs
To enter, participants must use #ChipotleSponsorUs and #contest, and post a creative TikTok video with their family or group showing why Chipotle should sponsor them in a creative way. The contest period ends on September 14th at 11am PT. The House Nobody Asked For will be reviewing entries, judging on creativity, and commenting on the winners' posts at 3pm PT on September 14.
"With people spending more time with their loved ones, we're quickly seeing TikTok become a family affair," said Chris Brandt, Chief Marketing Officer. "Our #ChipotleSponsorUs TikTok challenge will inspire creativity on the platform and highlight our new Group Ordering feature which eliminates the stress of collecting everyone's Chipotle order."
