American fast food chain Chipotle Mexican Grill is coming to Alberta, CTV News Edmonton has confirmed.
The first location will open on 32 Avenue NE in Calgary this summer or fall, and the company says it plans to expand to Edmonton "in the coming years."
Chipotle has over 3,200 locations in the United States, and several Canadian locations in Ontario and B.C.
Correction
A previous version of this article incorrectly mentioned Chipotle had 500 locations in the United States. In fact, that number is 3,200.
