Small companies can compete effectively by specializing in movie type or audience, or by providing better service and amenities. The industry is highly concentrated: the top 50 companies account for more than 80 percent of revenue.
PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGY
Ticket sales account for two-thirds of revenue; food and beverage sales for more than 20 percent. Other source of revenue include on-screen advertisements, facility and concession rental during nonpeak hours, and amusement machine use.
Movie theater operations center on licensing and showing (exhibiting;) films to customers, and obtaining and selling concession items. Theaters license from distributors the rights to show a movie in specific geographic zones for a determined duration. Distributors define the zones, which typically vary from two to 15 miles in radius.
