    Kyle Campos discusses whether large retailers inevitably drive small retailers out of business. According to the document, large retailers like Toys "R" Us and Home Depot have built significant advantages over smaller competitors by offering customers greater value and lower prices that small retailers cannot match long-term. While large retailers provide fierce competition, there are also more fundamental forces at play that small retailers struggle to cope with, such as unstable economic environments due to technological growth and large capital flows that large retailers can more easily navigate strategically.

    From a competitive standpoint, is such an outcome inevitable? Discuss.

     Yes, from a competitive standpoint, such outcome is inevitable. These giant retailers such as
    Toys "R" Us & Home Depot have successfully built a significant advantage over other retailers in
    the market and often also provide fierce competition that small retailers are unable to survive
    are forced to close in those situations. Big retailers can offer to customers a value that small
    retailers cannot offer for a long term and also they can even offer goods at a cheaper price that
    smaller retailers can't compete.

    Is it really the big guys driving the little guys out of business or is there something more fundamental at
    work here?

     There something more fundamental at work here. The "Little guys" are unable to deal with force
    such as the competitive environment formed by the "Big guys." "Little guys" cannot strategically
    act on economic problems, whereas "big guys" can act on strategically unstable economic
    environments due to technological growth and a huge capital flow of money.
