English term or phrase: consignors / shippers
Tengo una duda con estos dos términos. Siempre los encuentro como sinónimos, pero en este texto, sobre el transporte de materiales radioactivos, se habla de "facilitating cooperation between consignors and shippers". ¿Me podrían aclarar la diferencia?
Gracias,
Nora
