The process described in the question is vertical integration, which is when a company buys all of the necessary components of production, marketing, and delivery in order to control the entire supply chain. This is different from horizontal integration (C), where a company acquires other companies in the same industry, and a hostile takeover (A), where one company forcibly acquires another. An Invisible Hand market (D) refers to the concept in economics that markets tend to self-regulate, while a corporate-controlled market (E) implies a scenario where a single corporation dominates the market, which is not described in the question.
