There are two different types of monopolies. There are illegal monopolies like the Wintel monopoly of the mid 90s where customers could only buy a PC running Windows on a Pentium Processor

And there are the market created monopolies such as the smart phone market where you can choose between an iPhone or any one of about 20 different Android phones from different suppliers.

All of those businesses are huge corporations.
