- Identify genuine buying requirements and qualify potential leads.




- Follow up consistently with prospects and maintain communication.
- Update CRM/sales records and track conversations, requirements, and opportunities.
- Research international fashion and textile markets to identify new business opportunities.

- Textile and fabric sourcing.
- Understanding fashion brand requirements.
- International buyer communication.

- How a textile sourcing business operates from client requirement → manufacturer → finished fabric → international client.

Success in This Role Your success will be measured by your ability to consistently:

This is not a passive internship. You will be directly involved in building ABACA Fabrics' international client base.
