warehousers
Bulk goods keepers
Warehousers are people or companies that store goods in warehouses.
The term covers both those who operate storage facilities and those who place goods in storage: The warehousers charged monthly fees for climate-controlled space.
In finance, warehousers accumulate assets—mortgages, loans—before bundling them for resale.
