Varra Textiles: Business Operations & Wholesale – Internship (WFH)
Varra Textiles, a Vancouver-based home and lifestyle business, is hiring for a paid Business Operations & Wholesale internship. The opportunity is advertised as work from home, with a stipend of ₹10,000–14,000 per month and a three-month duration. It combines supplier coordination, product research, wholesale support and organised business follow-up rather than software development.
Important schedule condition: applicants must be able to work from 9:30 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Indian Standard Time. The employer is based outside India and explicitly includes this overnight availability in its eligibility section. Although the listing also mentions flexible work hours as a perk, candidates should not interpret that as removing the stated night-time requirement.
The opening was posted on 5 October 2026 and its live application page was available when checked. There is one advertised opening, and applications close on 4 November 2026. Candidates must be able to start between 3 October and 7 November 2026 and commit to the full three months.

The listing does not give a fixed-versus-incentive split, the number of working days per week or a specific degree requirement. Its stated stipend range should not be treated as a guarantee that every selected applicant receives the maximum amount. The company mentions the possibility of a stipend revision based on performance, contribution and increased responsibilities; that is conditional, not an assured increase.
What the work involves
A major part of the role is supplier coordination. The intern will communicate and follow up with manufacturers, artisans and suppliers about products, pricing, minimum order quantities, materials, samples and production timelines. Product and sourcing research will support the categories and requirements shared by the business.
Keeping product information organised is another responsibility. The source lists supplier details, pricing, materials, dimensions, lead times, images and sample status among the information to maintain. Quality follow-up covers specifications, workmanship, finishing, packaging and export-quality expectations for international markets. This is coordination work; the listing does not describe the intern as independently certifying products or guaranteeing their compliance.
On the wholesale side, the intern will research suitable boutiques, lifestyle stores, gift stores, home-decor retailers, corporate-gifting businesses and potential B2B clients, primarily in Canada. Buyer databases, outreach responses, follow-up dates and next steps need to remain current in the company's records and CRM.
Other tasks include assisting with approved introductory emails, supplier communication and buyer follow-ups. Catalogue coordination involves collecting product images, descriptions, specifications, materials, customisation options and pricing for catalogues and presentations. A clear task tracker and regular updates to the business owner help distinguish completed work from items awaiting a response or requiring attention.
Who should consider applying?
The platform's required-skills list names MS Office, Operations, Vendor Management, Client Relationship Management (CRM), Business Research, Business Development, Interpersonal Skills, Negotiations and Vendor Negotiation. Applicants should assess these listed skills alongside the separate employer preferences below.
Applicants need relevant skills and interests, availability for the advertised WFH arrangement and night schedule, and the ability to commit for three months. Women looking to start or restart their careers can also apply. The listing does not state a minimum degree, age limit, marks cutoff or numerical prior-experience requirement.
The employer prefers proactive, organised applicants interested in growing with a young international business. Relevant interests or exposure can include sourcing, merchandising, wholesale, e-commerce, textiles, fashion, home and lifestyle products, handicrafts or exports. Comfort communicating with suppliers, attention to product and pricing details, and the ability to take ownership of assigned tasks are also preferred.
Good written and spoken English, research skills, Excel or Google Sheets familiarity, and willingness to learn CRM and business tools are useful. Candidates in Jaipur, Delhi NCR or other major textile and handicraft sourcing hubs may have an advantage, but this is a preference: the description expressly welcomes applications from across India.
Preparation advice for applicants
As editorial advice, use your application to show how you organise information and follow through on tasks. A genuine college project, volunteer assignment or previous work example involving spreadsheets, vendor communication or research can help explain your skills. Describe what you personally did rather than listing business terms without evidence.
Assess the night schedule honestly before applying. Work from home may reduce travel, but overnight availability can still conflict with college classes, other work or personal commitments. Ask the employer how breaks, daily expectations and the weekly schedule operate. These are practical questions to clarify, not extra conditions invented by Jobsii.
How to apply and what is not guaranteed
Visit the current Internshala listing through the link below, read the complete description and use its Apply now option before the advertised closing date. Confirm that your availability matches both the starting window and overnight schedule. Keep your application factual and only share materials you have permission to disclose.
The source says the intern will work directly with the business owner in Canada and gain exposure to sourcing, supplier management, merchandising, CRM and international business development. It does not promise relocation to Canada. High-performing candidates may be considered for a longer-term role, but selection, a stipend increase and continued employment are not guaranteed.
