  • Endogenous Sunk Costs and the Geographic Differences in the Market Structures of CPG Categories
    Quant Mark Econ (2011) 9:1–23 DOI 10.1007/s11129-010-9091-y Endogenous sunk costs and the geographic differences in the market structures of CPG categories Bart J. Bronnenberg · Sanjay K. Dhar · Jean-Pierre H. Dubé Received: 4 December 2008 / Accepted: 6 October 2010 / Published online: 4 November 2010 © The Author(s) 2010. This article is published with open access at Springerlink.com Abstract We describe the industrial market structure of CPG categories. The analysis uses a unique database spanning 31 consumer package goods (CPG) categories, 39 months, and the 50 largest US metropolitan markets. We organize our description of market structure around the notion that firms can improve brand perceptions through advertising investments, as in Sutton’s endogenous sunk cost theory. The richness of our data allow us to go beyond Sutton’s bounds test and to study the underlying forces bounding concentration away from zero. Observed advertising levels escalate in larger US markets. At the same time, the number of advertised brands in an industry appears to be invariant to market size. Therefore, the size-distribution of brands across markets is characterized by bigger (i.e. more heavily advertised) as opposed to more brands in larger markets. Correspondingly, observed concentration levels in advertising-intensive industries are bounded away from zero irrespective of market size.

For the purposes of comparison, Import Genius also provided summary data on total shipments arriving to the USA from anywhere in the world other than Bangladesh, satisfying the same set of search terms for the same time windows. We refer to these data as “rest of world” (RoW). Data in the figure is aggregated to the monthly level, in terms of kilograms, kilograms from Bangladesh as a percent of RoW weight, and number of shipments. A first glance suggests no noticeable decline in shipments around the April 2013 Rana Plaza event.
