Examples of Captive Market:-
>Suppliers of custom or unique clothing for events, such as uniforms, parades, or performances.
>Petroleum products are part of a captive market in many areas of the world.
>Television and internet providers are very limited in rural areas, thus resulting in a captive market situation.
>Eating establishments in airports are a highly capitve market.
