Word origin

The term 'commoditisation' originated in the field of economics and business to describe the process by which goods or services lose their unique characteristics and become interchangeable with similar products in the market. This concept became more prominent with the rise of globalization and increased competition, leading to a focus on price as the primary differentiator. The commoditisation of products has implications for businesses in terms of pricing strategies, market positioning, and customer loyalty.
