Abstract

We consider the cases of different number of logistics firms in the market which provide service for customers. The game-theoretic model of choosing order service is constructed. The model is a n-person game with perfect information where clients defined as players. We find equilibrium strategies for clients. The existence of these equilibria is proved.

Keywords:

selecting problem, logistics schemes, n-person game with full information, Nash equilibrium, fully-mixed strategies
