Why did a container cost more than the Cola inside? Massive profits because the 'not monopolies' could set excessively high profit margins.
Because the company paid for the advertising that put their product in front of people. People chose to buy the product to the point of brand loyalty. Because people received value for their money and were satisfied in doing so.

The soft drink industry might not be the best comparison TW.
