A. It has a competitive advantage in the industry

Explanation:

Competitive advantage is a condition where one company has an advantage of making or producing the same product for lesser costs or other benefits.

There are two main types of competitive advantages. One is the external and the other is the internal. The external factors include the advantages of sale over other industries or market pricing or other marketing strategies. the internal factors include the lower costs or high standard production etc.
