We require candidates ONLY from Textile Manufacturing units dealing specifically in Unstitched Fabrics, with strong hands-on market knowledge in the following product lines:
Digital Print Fabrics
Ahmedabad, Gujarat (with 12 to 15 days of travel per month - Pan India)
Experience: Minimum 9–10 years in Unstitched Fabric sales/marketing
Industry: Textile Manufacturing (Suiting / Shirting / Digital Print Fabrics) only
Experience Required: 15 / 20+ years in textile sales, marketing, and business development (suiting & shirting preferred). Strong network across domestic textile trade (distributors, dealers, retailers, brands). Proven experience in scaling sales, building teams, and entering new geographies. This is critical - better forecasting means better production planning, lower inventory holding, and fewer missed deliveries. Market Intelligence & Trend Reading
Get structured feedback from the market on product quality, pricing, design preferences, and service levels. The market is changing with traditional wholesale models being disrupted by D2C brands, e-commerce aggregators, and digitally savvy retailers. Align and restructure distribution networks to improve reach and market penetration across India.
Team Building, Leadership & Culture
Build, lead, and develop a marketing and sales team that operates with ownership, discipline, and pride in the company.
Review performance regularly. Market Presence & Brand Reputation
Build and maintain relationships with trade partners, key accounts, and industry bodies on a foundation of integrity and trust.
Every interaction with a customer or channel partner should reinforce the brand's standing for quality, reliability, and fair dealing.
Use these platforms to strengthen the brand and build the pipeline.
Engage with key accounts personally. For large or strategic accounts, this person should be the face of the company.
Own the customer experience end to end. If there's a quality complaint, a delivery delay, or a pricing dispute - this person drives the ownership.
Oversee stock levels, payment follow-ups, and fabric sourcing coordination (including imports and outsourcing where applicable).
Provide structured, regular updates to the management – weekly sales reviews, monthly performance reports, quarterly business reviews.
Ensure transparent communication across Sales, Marketing, Production, and Finance departments. Escalate issues and decisions that genuinely need management attention but come with data, context, and a recommendation, not just problems.
Long-Term Vision & Growth Planning
This is not a short-term assignment. The company is looking for someone with a long-term
