A consignor is a person or a company that is responsible for initiating and organising a shipment. A consignor could be a seller or an exporter (who ships goods from one country to the other). This means the Consignor is the sender of goods. Depending on the seller, the process of shipment and the number of parties to the movement of goods vary. When goods are ordered, the buyer\u2019s information is sent to the consignor. On receiving the order, the consignor chooses a\u00a0carrier\u00a0who then uses its\u00a0carrier assets\u00a0to move the goods from the point of origin to the recipient or to the\u00a0place of destination.
