The paper investigates the problem of supply chain coordination in supply networks using the revenue-sharing contract. The supply network has a combined topology and consist of three levels of hierarchy of participants: manufacturers, distributor, and retailers. The authors consider the companies ’performance improvement as the motivation of companies to operate in coordinating conditions. The contract procedure is modeled as a game between two companies. The game solution is a set of contract parameters, providing Nash equilibrium, achieving the maximum of the supply network profit and Pareto-optimality of the obtained solution. The results show the application of revenue-sharing contracts in such networks has several peculiarities: the role of a coordinator in the supply network should be performed by a distributor.
