pressing ahead and squeezing out/driving out/elbowing out/narrowing/pushing out competition
OR:
pressing ahead while squeezing out/driving out/elbowing out/narrowing/pushing out/taking out competition
AND SOME MORE:
cutting the ground from under competition / take the wind out of their sails / pressing them hard
BTW, I see “competition” used a lot more often than “competitors” in similar contexts.
Having a bit more context could be helpful, though…
