[A brand] used by a manufacturer or distributor for the purpose of combatting competitive brands, to drive them out of the market. For example, a manufacturer may introduce a new brand of canned food in a local market at a very low price, and continue to sell it until a local competitive brand has been eliminated. At this point, the fighting brand is withdrawn and replaced by one of the manufacturer's regular brands, at the regular price. 3, record 1, English, - fighting%20brand
