John D. Rockefeller consolidated his monopoly through the establishment of the Standard Oil Company, which utilized aggressive strategies such as horizontal integration, where he acquired competing oil companies to dominate the market. He also engaged in vertical integration by controlling every aspect of the oil supply chain, from production to distribution. Additionally, Rockefeller employed secretive deals and rebates with railroads to lower transportation costs, further undercutting competitors. These tactics enabled him to significantly reduce competition and increase his market share, leading to a near-total monopoly in the American oil industry.
