low fragmentation means there are some giants in the market which control it. think of the search engines….. how many can you name ? maybe google and bing and a very few others. which means the market is less fragmented and the competitors in it are very big and powerful which are enough to deter new entrants from entering.
if the market has low fragmantation a single firm can sell its products throughout the whole country , and there fore this will be a barier to entry because this single can out compete a new entrant no matter the part of the country they operate in . ihowever if the market is segmented they are lots of gaps left and they may be new entrants each satisfying different segment (part) of the market
Low competition means that you might have the market to yourself or at worst share with poor companies. Therefore, it is relatively easy to enter.
Low fragmentation means that there are few players in the market. So if the market were divided between only two, each might have around 50%, so they will be big and powerful and will resist new entrants very strongly.
A highly fragmemted market implies many suppliers (the market has been broekn down and sharedmby many suppliers). Low fragmemtation means that there are a few large, powerful suppliers.

i don’t understand how a high know how of the market is a barrier to entry
Ken Garrett says
High know-how implies you need a lot of skills to succeed. Acquiring those skills takes time and effort so represents a barrier to entry.
y8698 says
I, and I assume others somehow mis-took it as ‘I the new entrant have a high know-how’.
Ken Garrett says
Ah! OK. We’ll change the wording.
Thanks.

i don’t understand why low competition is incorrect
i think low competition means low fragmentation and less powerful suppliers

masultan3 says
Thanks for the reply. So how does few large suppliers raise the bar for new entrants? Is it that those suppliers have monopolies?
Ken Garrett says
They are big and powerful and therefore are often able to crush new entrants.
masultan3 says
I don’t understand what is meant by market fragmentation. Can you elaborate on it please?
