Alayna Stockton is a real estate agent. She wants to make a sale, but more importantly, she wants to stay safe.“You can’t rely on law enforcement,” she says. “They can’t be everywhere all the time.” So, Stockton is taking matters into her own hands, by the way of a 9mm handgun. She is also taking concealed carry classes, so she can eventually take her gun with her to open houses.“It does give you a sense of safety, not just in real estate, but in being in public,” she says. We’re learning more women like Stockton are getting their concealed carry permits. In a recent study, the Crime Prevention Research Center found that between 2012 and 2018, the number of women in the United States with concealed carry permits increased by 207 percent.At the Guns For Everyone gun shop, they’re holding a concealed carry class specifically for women.Owner Edgar Antillon says these women-only classes are growing in popularity, with a 30 percent increase in the past few weeks.“Recent events that have happened like El Paso, Ohio, and a lot of people want to defend themselves,” he says. “A lot of people sometimes get too lazy and complacent and wait until the last minute. Unfortunately, it takes an event like that to kind of push people to get the proper training.”So, more women or getting more guns, but does that make them more safe?While helping a woman at gun range, Antillon says if you pull a gun, you better be ready to use it. If not, you could have it used against you. “If it gets to that point to where you have to use it, you need to know if you have the mental capability of using this firearm," Antillon says. 1637

After targeting keto and paleo dieters, Chipotle is courting vegetarians.The fast casual chain on Monday expanded its new line of diet-based bowls to include vegan and vegetarian options. "Lifestyle bowls" launched earlier this year with Whole30 and double protein meals in addition to the keto and paleo bowls.The lifestyle bowls are a way for Chipotle to market itself to a wide variety of customers focused on health, especially as it rebounds from E. coli and norovirus scares from a few years ago. And the vegetarian and vegan options could help raise awareness among an increasingly important customer base.Chipotle first introduced its vegan protein option, Sofritas, in 2014. Demand for Sofritas has continued to grow, the company said. Last year, it cooked 7.5 million pounds of Sofritas. Vegetarian and vegan meals made up roughly 12% of all the meals Chipotle sold in 2018."We've found that many people are increasingly looking for plant-based protein options," said Chris Brandt, Chipotle's chief marketing officer. The bowls don't include new vegan or vegetarian ingredients. They're only available as pre-configured options on Chipotle's website or mobile app.Taco Bell recently tried a similar tactic.In January, Taco Bell announced a plan to test out a vegetarian menu board that would highlight the restaurant's current vegetarian options, including tacos, tostadas burritos and crunchwraps. Putting all of the meat-free items on one menu should make it easier for vegetarians to see their options, Taco Bell explained. For Chipotle, the lifestyle bowls are a way not only to lure vegetarian eaters, but to create positive hype for the brand.During an earnings call in February, CEO Brian Niccol said that the lifestyle bowls "resonated with consumers in a big way." CFO John Hartung said the bowls "created an awful lot of buzz and interest.""The whole idea here is to really emphasize again that Chipotle can be an option for virtually any diet," said Sharon Zackfia, an analyst who covers restaurants for the research group of asset manager William Blair. By raising awareness of the many different diets Chipotle is compatible with, it is "eliminating the veto factor," she said.Chipotle has come a long way since it suffered following an E. coli outbreak that 60 Chipotle customers in 14 states ill in late 2015 and early 2016.Now, customers are coming back. In 2018, the company reported a revenue increase of 8.7% compared to the previous year. Sales at restaurants open at least a year jumped 4% in that time frame, and digital sales surged 42.4%.To help drive the rebound, Chipotle unrolled its "for real" marketing campaign, which highlights ingredients and offers transparency into its operations, streamlined its pickup options, expanded its delivery services and made its production lines more efficient, among other things. 2897

Amazon's go-it-alone delivery strategy has driven away one of its biggest partners. FedEx will end its ground delivery contract with Amazon.For years, Amazon has used FedEx's ground delivery service to help shuttle online orders to consumers. But Amazon is also rapidly bolstering its own delivery network, agitating established logistics businesses.FedEx announced Wednesday that it plans to let their ground ship contract expire at the end of the month. The company said in a statement that recent steps to bolster its delivery network have positioned the company "extraordinarily well" to "focus on the broader e-commerce market."FedEx also dumped Amazon from its air cargo services in June. The company said at the time it would continue serving online shoppers through its partnerships with other companies not named Amazon. FedEx noted Amazon accounted for less than 1.3% of its total revenue in 2018.Amazon did not immediately respond to a request for comment.FedEx v. AmazonAmazon's obsession with speedier deliveries has overhauled the delivery landscape. Its aggressive plans to expand its internal shipping network threaten FedEx and UPS.Over the past couple of years, Amazon's moves are often met in lock step by FedEx: Amazon expanded its warehouse center, and FedEx debuted FedEx Fulfillment. Amazon announced single-day delivery, and FedEx said it would speed things up with seven-day shipping. Amazon began testing a delivery robot, and FedEx introduced the 1486
