'for' or 'to' seem more likely.

If you could explain the situation in more detail, we might find that 'through' is possible. It depends on what you're trying to say.

Mr. Rasel is the sender not the receiver.

I'd say: "Today we are sending goods by Mr. Rasel Which can we use."
PS: The highlighted part is not appropriate to me.

I thought that since the OP had decided to use one of the "by" or "through" words, so concluding that Mr. Rasel is the sender is more possible. That is all dear CJ

OK. I see. But "we" is the sender according to the original sentence. However, if the OP thinks that Mr. Rasel is going to deliver the item, maybe "with" is the best choice.

We are sending goods with Mr. Rasel suggests Mr. R. is carrying the goods himself (walking or driving).
