The paper is devoted to supply chain structure optimization. The Pareto optimality approach allows limiting possible parameters values for different firm configuration. It is suggested to make choice of the structure pattern based on Pareto optimal set according to objective functions minimum. The mentioned functions are jointed to linear combinations with weights that are relative capital of echelons. An illustrative supply chain is considered.
