Price‐tier competition: an integrative review Available to Purchase

The nature of competition between different tiers (e.g. high‐tier vs low‐tier brands) has become an important research domain for academic researchers and marketing managers. Although research on inter‐tier competition is growing at an increasing rate, there has not been a comprehensive attempt to summarize the research in this stream. The objective of this article is to synthesize the research on inter‐tier competition, extract the key findings, discuss managerial implications, and offer future research directions.
