Those are extreme examples, but I think that there is still a free-market argument in those cases as well?
When we signed a deal to rent a part of the block mall, part of the agreement was that we were the only kitchen cabinet showroom allowed to rent there while our contract was still viable.

There are also other parts of the contract that I won't mention here that are more or less what you mentioned above.

That being said, that was a contract we signed with a private landlord. We wouldn't like it if a competitive business set up shop across the street, but there is really nothing we could do about it. And there shouldn't be.
