The only thing that it can happen is when the company copied the items of the competitors. That is why we need to patent our items to prevent from being copied.

It all depend on the understand and level of maturity between the two competitors. Moreover, if the business is close, the chances of open confrontation is high. If the competitors are educated and exposed, they may avoid what will bring conflicts

In the business, competition is a must. However you can't avoid these kinds of business conflicts at all. Everyone is up there trying out to beat the other. You must be so creative and innovative enough to out fit your competitors.

I'm afraid there's not much you can do as long as your competitors are offering products which do not infringe your patent or copyright. What you can do is to outsmart them by providing excellent customer service and offer products which meet with changing customer needs.

Don't talk down on your competitor to a customer. The same customer might innocently say it to the competitor. Focus on the uniqueness of your products when convincing a customer.

In this kind of situation, I believe the competition is not stiff and it is very healthy. But I don't think it looks good from the consumer's point of view.

There are some business competitors that don't really care about what their competitors are going to feel about when their brands have been copied. It is why I believe that you have to be very creative in knowing how to adjust your product all the time so that you will always be unique.

Yeah the most important thing is to focus on the uniqueness of your products. This is how to deal with a competitor to win them even as they keep copying you.
