Trader Joe’s, on the other hand, does require almost everyone to white label.
- coding123 6y agoTrader Joes has what, 1% of the market share of shoppers? Android and iPhone have what, 99%?
- tshaddox 6y agoAndroid and iPhone definitely cannot each have 99% of the market.
- Osiris 6y agoCombined, not each.
- coding123 6y agoGoing back to the grocery store analogy... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_supermarket_chains_in_the_United_States https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_supermarket_chains_in_... While at least 50% of the random grocery stores you would see are under one of the big 5 (or so) many of these stores are generally able to carry additional products not even necessarily approved by the top. Part of that is simply competition with local chains. And that doesn't even cover the fact that you have gobs of local and regional chains to contact and sell goods to. But basically as a seller of lemonade you are highly likely to be able to sell your product without insane restrictions - as well have the ability to choose a chain or store that has competitive markup or a markup that you agree with. If you sell phone applications you are dealing with exactly 2 entities that you HAVE to go through.
- anoncake 6y agoAndroid apps and iPhone apps are different markets.
- colejohnson66 6y agoIf you can just define a market to whatever you want, then everyone has a 100% market share. By your definition, Samsung has a 100% market share on Samsung TVs.
- anoncake 6y agoNo, because you can substitute a different manufacturer's TV for a Samsung one and vice versa.
- AuthorizedCust 6y agoHow is 1% market share relevant? If that policy is justified, then market share is irrelevant.
- coding123 6y ago... because a seller literally has 99% of the market to go after instead because they don't have a policy like that?
- kentonv 6y agoTrader Joe's customers can and do shop at other stores as well. Whereas people don't realistically carry more than one phone or switch phone types frequently.
