Since many enterprises carry out distribution separately, it has caused high cost of distribution, immense pressure on city traffic and certain effect on environment. Carrying out common delivery of retail chain industry in cities is to adapt to this change in an effective way.Common delivery in retail chain industry has obvious economic benefits and good social benefits. The government and enterprises are paying more and more attention to common delivery.

The paper mainly discusses one big problem, which is puzzling the common delivery alliance operation—that is expenses liquidation among the enterprises. Under the guidance of the concept of cooperative game, "Shapley Value" cost liquidation model of common delivery based on risk sharing is established. Besides the common delivery mode of the Group of Beijing Trade Co., LTD, as a professional third party logistics service supplier, is analyzed.
