What does it mean to group players according to where they land on the strategic group analysis map?

Grouping players according to where they land on the strategic group analysis map means categorizing competitors based on their strategic positions. This could be based on various dimensions such as price, quality, geographic coverage, brand identity, distribution channels, level of vertical integration, or specific cost position or services offered. The position of a player on the map indicates their strategic approach in the market.

Question was asked on:

You then group the players according to where they land and plot them on the map.
