being a student of economics, you’re required to identify the market structure category in which this khaadi brand falls. justify your answer by applying any two key characteristics of that market structure on the given industry.

The correct answer is, Oligopoly.

Explanation:

This is so true that in Pakistan, the textile industry has grown at a much bigger pace in the past recent years. There are many brands that are mentioned in the question that are concerned with the design and production of yarn, cloth and clothing, but they face high competition.

According to the question, Khaadi is the brand in Pakistan which is capturing the most of the market share and profit. According to the characteristics, Khaadi fall under the market structure of Oligopoly. Oligopoly is the market structure in which only few of the firms are dominating in the industry.

So now defining the two characteristics of Khaadi as oligopoly; one is, Khaadi is the dominating brand with the highest market share in the textile industry. Secondly the products of Khaadi are homogeneous but differentiated because of the specialized hand woven products, which other brands hardly practice.

So Khaadi falls under the Market Structure of Oligopoly.
