Parties mentioned in B/L
There are three main columns in B/L. These are shipper (consignor), consignee or order of and notifying party. Notifying party is party to whom notice is to be sent on the arrival of goods at the place of destination. When the B/L is made to the order of the person, in whose name it is made to the order of, has the right to endorse further. To illustrate:
Consignor: Cherry & Co, Bhopal
Consignee or to the order of: Dimpy & Co, New jersey, U.S.A.
Notifying Bank: Bank of America, New jersey
In this case, Dimpy & co has the total right for the cargo as the consignee. So, Cherry & Co can not transfer title to the goods to the third party. If payment of the goods is not received, consignor loses title to the goods and so B/L is not to be made in this way. However, where advance payment has been received or goods are shipped under irrevocable letter of credit, bill of lading can be made in the name of the consignee. In the normal circumstances, exporter takes the bill of lading to his order and endorses to the bank at the time of negotiation and in this way his interests are fully protected.
