marketshare

Competitive sales portion

Market share is the portion of total sales in an industry or category that belongs to a particular company or product, usually expressed as a percentage.

A company with 40% market share controls two-fifths of all sales in that market.

Businesses track market share obsessively because gaining or losing it signals competitive health.

The new smartphone captured significant market share from established brands.

The term is often written as two words (market share) but increasingly appears as one.
