When I use my company name to search for keywords using Google Keyword Tool I get as a result my company name. When I searched using my competitor's name I get 300 great keywords. They are certainly a larger company than I am but is that the only reason?

I'm guessing that, as a larger company, they or affiliates have spent money on Adwords. Therefore all the great related keywords that they have painstakingly researched and used are available to you. You can thank Google and that larger company for saving you lots of research time.
