Answer:
A business that achieves vertical integration will likely have better control of their margins as they control various points on the supply chain.
Explanation:
Vertical integration is a business strategy where a company will make acquisitions or otherwise develop different business units so that is can control its suppliers and distributors, or also control the retail or customer-facing dimensions of its business so it controls various points on the supply chain. This gives the company more ability to control costs and to earn a bigger margin at different points in the product or service process. It is a way to cut out middlemen who also look to earn a margin on their business. An example is a grocery store chain that may also open up distribution centers and develop a private label it can offer to consumers in its retail stores.
