We run into that very issue in our local food system. It's a cap on the ability to grow the local food economy. The solutions people have tried include making shared USDA kitchens for food processing, but that is very complicated and I have heard more of them fail than succeed.
In capitalist systems, "sometimes" seems to be happening very often. Frequently enough now, and over history, that some very believable and actionable critiques of capital have been written, re-written, re-discovered and re-packaged -- at their root being the insight that this alienation, capture and monopoly is the result of class differentiation, capital accumulation, and production under the commodity form. That's not bullshit.
