*Consignment
(from lat.. consignatio – written evidence) – is a mode of selling
goods over the sea with an aid of an intermediate seller, who is not an
owner of goods but is entitled to sell them from a specific warehouse.
In such way both parties may get some advantages, in comparison with
other forms of cooperation. In compliance with contract of consignment, an owner of goods, or consignor,
transfers only right of sales and reserves right and possibility to
control quantity, condition and sale terms of goods. Furthermore, consignor
may operate with goods without including them in his or her stocks. A
supplier of goods reduces his or her risk by means of reserving title
to goods up to their sale from a warehouse, and a seller is free from
responsibility for quality of goods and necessity to pay immediately
for the whole lot of received goods.
It
is common practice in consignment for warehousing service, i.e. storing
of goods at a warehouse and pre-sales preparation, to be provided at
the seller’s expense. Average time of storing goods at a
warehouse of intermediate seller is 1 – 1, 5 year. Goods not sold over
this period may be returned to the owner according to a standard
consignment contract, if other conditions were not stipulated.
Consignment, as a mode of interaction between the owner of goods and
his or her foreign partner who acts as an intermediate seller, allows
to establish negotiable business relations between a supplier of goods
and an importing recipient. A supplier of goods times delivery of goods
without assistance, assesses quality of goods and cost of warehousing
service offered by a partner, designs a supply rate not being totally
reliant on importing partner’s current financial capacity.
