Horizontal integration is not the same as a monopoly.
A monopoly would be the same as two vertical integrations resulting in one company controlling the three tiers of business: production distribution and supply alone. Sorry if that sounded too marxist for you all.
Horizontal integration is the take over of a business within a similar tier but a completely different industry.
e.g. a cell phone and car producer merging.
