Market challenger

A company already holding a major share in the market and competing with the current market leader.

Typically a market challenger is a company competing intrusively to advance its market share, as opposed to a market follower; that is seeking only to maintain its market share. However companies may work to avoid overtly direct competition by cultivating a market niche.
