purchasers

People who buy

Purchasers are people or entities that buy something.

The word is more formal than buyers and appears often in legal, business, and real estate contexts: The purchasers agreed to the terms of the sale.

A bona fide purchaser in law is someone who buys in good faith without knowledge of competing claims.
