@@austinchild6500 Cutting cost is a much more effective way to boost profit. It's simple math: Restaurants like this usually have profit margins around 6-10%. Let's say they make $1.10 for every dollar they spend. If they increase sales by say 20% without increasing expenses, then profit increases 20%. But if they cut costs by 20%, profit increases by 200%, it triples. This fact is the reason why quality across the board has been on a downward trend towards "minimum viable product" for decades now. Cutting costs is just too effective of a way to make money.

@@kevinwang1211 The Bridgewater location? O boy. 1. Constantly out of ingredients. 2. Long lines due to inefficiency with workers - You'll notice 1-2 workers producing the bowls while 1 of them doesn't know what they're doing. 3. Takeout inefficiency - App will give specified time but order won't be ready for 20-30 min over. You'll notice a crowd of people waiting for takeout. 4. Staff Turnover - one Sunday in late spring, they had 2 workers working. They continued to take in online orders. They eventually turned customers away and gave refunds on takeout orders. The staff is completely new since then. This has to do with all the ingredients Cava carries, requires a lot of prep especially for busy locations like Bridgewater. I live within 5 min of this location and wish management would figure it out here.

Both stocks have a long term potential, The most important thing is the ratio of the distribution based on the financials of each company. There are many other companies that are also doing well. You could just hire a financial advisor to guide you. A financial advisor really does help me do the distribution even between different asset classes.

CNBC Video in 12 months: ”Why Wall Street Has Fallen Out Of Love with Cava“ There’s nothing about the value proposition that’s not easy to replicate. Enjoy it, while it lasts though 😅
I thought Zoe's Kitchen was average, but when Cava took over they took what was passable about Zoe's for a healthy busy weeknight meal and turned it all into slop in a bowl or on a weird cakey faux pita. I don't mind the fast, casual cafeteria choose your toppings style, but it should be prices as to what you are getting. At this point I have given up on eating out even though I can afford it. The gap in value us just too wide to justify paying for the convienence. A single meal will run you about $18 at Cava. I can take the same money and buy the meat, a pack of pita and container of salad bar toppings/dressing to feed at least 4-6 adults with an additional purchase of dessert or sodas to go with it.
Never heard of them. In Chicago we've already got stuff like this, Benjyahuda and Roti to name two, not to mention small mom and pop shops that do this but better in every regard.
In Santa Monica - No one is opening waiter/receptionist driven spots anymore. Eventually we will not even be allowed inside the place- we will order via QR code and they'll shove the food out of a service window and they'll tell you keep moving!
Order through their app for pickup ended up being more than $18 with no extra add ons whatsoever. Meat portions were disappointing for that kinda price. They said they didn't RAISE the price making it a good value. Thats laughable😂. Won't be back!

@bicgohill8756 i live in Central VA and we have a couple of options like Cava - doing similar things. Personally, I love the flavors and the freshness.
I can't speak for everyone but I would say Cava is only preferred for lunch. Can't get something healthy and tasty for lunch on the street these days. Would never get it for dinner. Workplace culture of packing lunch is also non existent. Many friends get stipend for lunch. Def a diff product market fit
All the employees at CNBC are yelling at each other to purchase this stock, before they publish this sales pitch for CAVA 😂😂😂 CAVA’s check to CNBC is in the post 😂😂😂
At some point, the growth of businesses like this will eventually peak and they will need to make stupid decisions just to please the investors. That's when people walk away and the next one pops up.
I don't trust their hygiene at all. Every CAVA I've been seems to have food scraps all over the place, tables not wiped down and dirty bathrooms. Offering 38 freshly made items on the menu is great but ultimately leaves less time for staff to keep the restaurant and kitchen sanitary. Noticed the same thing with Cafe Rio and Blaze Pizza. More complicated menu = more mess.
An ounce of meat, with mostly rice, and vegetables. I can't see the value for most consumers, but hey I can't be convinced to pay $10 plus for a bowl that consist of 80% rice.
@@therealBlackTomato Absolutely. They (finance media) want us to believe that these valuations are absolutely organic. They’re (small hats) are basically the mafia.
It’s pretty good, They have a lot of sauces and flavors and the toppings are fresh, if you try harissa sauce is good, the spicy hummus, and their harissa chicken(cost a little more) is good
Obviously but school cafeteria food is/was trash unhealthy not fresh. And work cafeteria food isn't open 7 days a week 12hrs a day and have multiple locations. There's a proven success model here
I don't know. This type of pump & dump scheme has a throwback feel to it... It's sort of like how they used matchsticks instead of crypto in the 1920s.
investors have invested in cava so that is why they love cava. why else would they be called investors then? as if health food can be cheaper that junk food in a capitalist system
I ate there once and had a bunch of steak and red spicy stuff mixed with healthy looking green stuff and it tasted good to me. I had to continuously ask for more steak though. So something tells me that people are generally going to settle for smaller portions. I wanted my money's worth though 😅
I remember trying Chipotle for the first time in the US, and then it came to Canada. This summer, had Cava for the first time in California and now eager for them to come to Vancouver
Cava is just so good. I knew about Cava before they even expanded to when they did now. Good, healthy options that's also filling what more can I ask for? The only other Mediterranean fast casual competitor is Taim Mediterranean but you dont get the value you do with Cava. I love Cava. I just hope they dont lose their touch on their recipes with their expansion
Same with Sweet Green, they both ran about 300%+ since Oct of 2023. In the same period SPY is up about 50%. It's the general market expectation of continuation of economic growth and rate cut at the same time. mandate return to office is likely a huge factor in their revenue growth. Just as video mentioned Sweet Green isn't profitable, but it doesn't change the fact that it's running like it's making billions. lol. Stock Market Market.
I haven't eaten there in several years but it DESTROYED chipolte and several other fast casuals in the area when I did. Just way better macros, much fresher veggies, and more appetizing presentation. Everything else has gotten worse the past few years so maybe it has too but it was definitely the best in its bracket circa 2020
Cava is always busy and super slow to make orders by me. My local restaurant consistently makes mistakes on to go orders and door dashers are always messaging that they are “waiting for the order at the restaurant even if it’s been a 30 minutes after the order was submitted and acknowledged.
Whenever CNBC talo about a company/stock. They are trying to provide exit liquidity for the big dawgs. Be careful buying this. Speaking as a someone who bought 15 $50 2025 calls last year and made good money. I am now slowly entering a short position. Some atm puts 6months out. Glad if you read this and make money
Sweetgreen is a SALAD chain restaurant. Last time I checked, they have NO MEAT OPTIONS for their food. Maybe. Just maybe that the MEAT OPTION at Cava makes it the more profitable option. I heard that LAMB exists at Meditteranean cuisine.
I feel dumb sometimes. Hell, I’m nearly 60 in a few years. I never heard of CAVA and I’ve been in Los Angeles 3 years. I could be because I’m homeless living in my car, but I work in Beverly Hills and travel DTLA and still haven’t seen or heard of store until this video. I also lived in Mississippi, Texas and Atlanta nearly 20 years and haven’t heard of CAVA. That may be to its operating history 👀💰👍🏿.
As a meditarrean myself, our food is the one of best in the world because it's healthy and has a lot of variety and very few spices. Olive oil, salt and maybe some oregano and that's it. That itself it's the baseline for a perfect food chain. Combine that with good management and large scale and that's a game winner. The thing is: here in south Europe we don't need that food chain so that's why nobody capitalizes on that. Good for Mr. Schulman for having that vision!
so this is what i don't understand, why do people/business advisors/mentors, etc, always tell you when you have an entrepreneurial endeavor, to open a business that is new/unique, and fills a void that no other business is filling--when all this video told me was to replicate what is already out there and make that your business?
i like cava and i think the portions are good. I can usually eat it in two sittings. yes its expensive but it tastes so fresh. my only one problem, its a tad bit salty. if they fix that I'm good.
Unfortunately Cava is also emulating Chipotle by having dropoffs in the quality of food and staff. Incorrect orders with items missing, the food service area is a mess, portions are smaller, etc... all things my local Chipotle also started doing years ago.
Their portion sizes are already very small, as they've downsized recently. And it's very expensive for fast food. I don't see what they can do to improve. That being said, I do see the company expanding in the future.
Yep, once the place has a proven record of turning a profit Wall Street will want more and more of it...the restaurant has to start raising prices and nickel and diming the customer.
This won't last but stock price can keep going up- I didn't short CAVA because I saw higher income still consuming but that won't last- Sweetgreens also roared because higher income still consumed but that won't last either- if they miss one Wall Street expectation it will fall badly...but until then shorting would be disastrous (learned my lesson w/ Sweetgreens). Better off just to buy market ETF every month- you can short when everyone starts dumping which will come suddenly- God bless us all-
as the new gen gets older, this is what people will want. chipotle changed the game. cava, sweet green, poke places, on + on, noodles and co, are all the future! BUY IN NOW
The only way a company can grow is by expanding its customer base, which eventually stagnates, but typically the numbers continue to grow if the company reduces costs by squeezing its suppliers as it grows, think Walmart, and by underpaying and overworking its workers. There’s no other way to continue to grow exponentially.
Looks all right. I still have not eaten at Chipotle, so this may be pretty far off. I typically don’t invest in anything that I have not at least tried, so I will hold off until do. But, I will wait til they have an ecoli scare or something and jump on the dip. 😀
I went to cava for the first time in St Pete Florida and the experience was not very nice. Granted they were about to close but still. They don't have the friendly atmosphere that many Chipotles used to have. Food tasted all right. Not sure if it has that addictive taste that Chipotle has. I might give it a chance a few times but I've heard from others that it gets kind of boring and bland after a while.
I'm in St. Pete as well Mariners Point area, Skyway bridge...there are several places on 4th St. North with a similar menu. I'm a New Yorker and places like Cava are pretty common
I know for a fact the moment I jump in on their stocks, it’ll start dipping
feel the same way. The game is rigged. ETF from now on.
By the time it's in the news, they're getting ready to dump the stock
Yeah. Like Nvidia

Chipotle dropped the ball with the change in portion sizes. I switched to Cava and haven’t been back.

That itself it's the baseline for a perfect food chain. Combine that with good management and large scale and that's a game winner. The thing is: here in south Europe we don't need that food chain so that's why nobody capitalizes on that. Good for Mr. Schulman for having that vision!
so this is what i don't understand, why do people/business advisors/mentors, etc, always tell you when you have an entrepreneurial endeavor, to open a business that is new/unique, and fills a void that no other business is filling--when all this video told me was to replicate what is already out there and make that your business?
CAVA’s secret is the bowls have really good flavor profiles.
Would love to see stuff like this in the UK!
No you wouldn't. It's nasty
Everyone loves these stores when they first takeoff, then when they’re massively successful, they get bashed. Panera, chipotle, subway, etc
i like cava and i think the portions are good. I can usually eat it in two sittings. yes its expensive but it tastes so fresh. my only one problem, its a tad bit salty. if they fix that I'm good.
"Happy Friday."
"One, two, three. Friday!"
Forcing your employees to put on a show like this for the cameras is incredibly embarrassing.
I might just invest in stocks on cava
You should! I bought a lot when it was around $45 a share and it has PAID off.
got a cava bowl midway thru this video and its great
I loved CAVA. Every time i got to Woodland Hills CA I ate there 😊
The real question for me is…how the hell do we get Cava to come to Vegas! We need like 3 locations asap! Lol.
I had it for the first time and loved it. Delicious food.
Im excited. There is one opening near my home!
So how long for it to turn to chipotle?
Valuation is insane
Love cava ❤so clean and amazing
Unfortunately Cava is also emulating Chipotle by having dropoffs in the quality of food and staff. Incorrect orders with items missing, the food service area is a mess, portions are smaller, etc... all things my local Chipotle also started doing years ago.
Their portion sizes are already very small, as they've downsized recently. And it's very expensive for fast food. I don't see what they can do to improve. That being said, I do see the company expanding in the future.
Quality is the attraction 😋✌️
Corporate greed always wins out in the end. Watered down ingredients, crappy service cost cutting where it's important
Yep, once the place has a proven record of turning a profit Wall Street will want more and more of it...the restaurant has to start raising prices and nickel and diming the customer.
Love Cava for 6yrs
This won't last but stock price can keep going up- I didn't short CAVA because I saw higher income still consuming but that won't last- Sweetgreens also roared because higher income still consumed but that won't last either- if they miss one Wall Street expectation it will fall badly...but until then shorting would be disastrous (learned my lesson w/ Sweetgreens). Better off just to buy market ETF every month- you can short when everyone starts dumping which will come suddenly- God bless us all-
as the new gen gets older, this is what people will want. chipotle changed the game. cava, sweet green, poke places, on + on, noodles and co, are all the future! BUY IN NOW
CAVA is amazing
The only way a company can grow is by expanding its customer base, which eventually stagnates, but typically the numbers continue to grow if the company reduces costs by squeezing its suppliers as it grows, think Walmart, and by underpaying and overworking its workers. There’s no other way to continue to grow exponentially.
I tried it and was not really impressed. Not to the extent this video is glazing. They are okay. Didn't like the quantity for I paid.
i have a feeling the stock is bubbled but what do i know
Looks all right. I still have not eaten at Chipotle, so this may be pretty far off. I typically don’t invest in anything that I have not at least tried, so I will hold off until do. But, I will wait til they have an ecoli scare or something and jump on the dip. 😀
I went to cava for the first time in St Pete Florida and the experience was not very nice. Granted they were about to close but still. They don't have the friendly atmosphere that many Chipotles used to have. Food tasted all right. Not sure if it has that addictive taste that Chipotle has. I might give it a chance a few times but I've heard from others that it gets kind of boring and bland after a while.
Why would you go somewhere at the END of the shift near closing and expect the best service/food an establishment has to offer? 🤨
I'm in St. Pete as well Mariners Point area, Skyway bridge...there are several places on 4th St. North with a similar menu. I'm a New Yorker and places like Cava are pretty common
What, it's like a battle between Chipotle, Qdoba, Cava, and Sweetgreen?
Have y’all tried Salada?
CNBC making the video after the stock already made 600% , the guy says they priced in 4000 restaurants. Gains were already made
i'll prep at home, same fresh items for approx $3 max
Need one in Indiana. Would do well in Fishers or Carmel. Both rated top suburbs nationally!
