Consortium of Licensed Traders/Registered Dealers


Explanation:
Licensed Dealer/Trader = עוסק מורשה
Registered Dealer/Trader = a general term for any kind of OSEK registered with the VAT authorities (incl. זעיר & פטור).
The context you gave suggests a consortium of Licensed Dealers/Traders.
Consortium = איחוד - an association of companies formed for a particular common issue/purpose. (Google "define: consortium" and you'll get plenty of similar answers ).
PS - Trader is the more commonly used term since it covers services as well as sales (like us translators).
