I appologize for asking more questions than I answer, however my grasp on French seems to me to be quite tenuous these days. Especially when I'm confronted by simple words that I thought I knew.
So, my question today is what does "aupre des" mean in this context? (please forgive the lack of accents, my keybord does not readily support them):
"...il financerait également plusierurs autre measures pour éliminer les goulet d'etranglement de la chaine d'approvisionnement, en étant a tout moment assuré d'etre remboursé sur les vents escomptées aupres des acheteurs finals."
"...it would equally finance many other measures aimed at eliminating the bottleneck in the supply chain, at all times assuring being remboursed for the discounted sales.....[by?, near?, concerning?, What???] ...the final buyers.
Thank you for any suggestions.
Bob
