The supply chain module accurately represents consigners and consignees, but when middle-men shipping companies are used, the original sender and receiver are not listed on bigger packages--when many small items are boxed together for air or sea cargo--from China Air to FedEx. When a large container is broken down in a FedEx facility, the packages inside receive a new 'consigner' and 'consignee'--FedEx to John Smith.

Instead of reasoning over chains of consigners and consignees, is there a way to add a sender and receiver? Or does the ontology permit us to talk about the consigner and consignee of different levels of packaging granularity--consigner for the package, consigner for the consolidated cargo, consigner for the entire air or sea freight?

If none of this belongs, then please disregard this issue!

Thank you!
