Answer:

The correct answer is letter "B": core rigidity.

Explanation:

A competitive advantage is an advantage that a company has over its competitors. It could be a comparative advantage if the company had a lower opportunity cost in its production process or a differential advantage if the product produced by the company has a unique feature.

Employers may provide useful input to businesses that could influence the direction of the operations. For that reason, Seth's lost part of its customers when a new competitor entered the market because they kept implementing the same rigid, outdated approach that had worked before.
