    The chicken market exhibits characteristics of an oligopoly market structure. There are only a few major firms that produce similar chicken products. As there is limited competition, firms have the ability to influence prices. The four major firms control around 85% of the US chicken market through informal coordination rather than explicit collusion. Tyson Foods has vertically integrated across different stages of food production to control costs and prices, enabling it to dominate the beef and chicken markets.
