NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., Jan. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE: CMG) announced today the return of Free Delivery Sundays throughout February and the launch of a first-of-its-kind ad campaign called TikTok Timeout for the big game.

A collection of creators will premiere Chipotle-sponsored content during each commercial break following a team timeout, including:

"The second screen is essential to the modern-day football viewing experience for Gen-Z," said Chris Brandt, Chief Marketing Officer. "TikTok Timeout allows us to show up where our target audience is and optimize the entertainment value of the evening by delivering them fresh content featuring their favorite creators."

Chipotle's TikTok Timeout targets a Gen-Z audience that accounts for 40% of all US consumers.* As digital natives, close to half of Gen-Zers are connected online for 10 hours a day.** Chipotle will curate a big game ad campaign on TikTok that will compete with traditional advertisements for viewers' attention in real time.
