consignors
They entrust merchandise
Consignors are people or businesses that entrust goods to another party for sale or delivery.
In consignment arrangements, the consignor remains the owner until the goods sell: The consignors receive payment only after their items find buyers.
In shipping, the consignor is the sender, as opposed to the consignee who receives.
