Today, we proudly celebrate 10 years in business, marking a decade of supporting sole traders, SMEs, corporate brands and entrepreneurs across Ballymena, Belfast, Northern Ireland, the UK, Ireland and beyond.

Managing Director Rodney Kernohan brings almost two decades of experience within the UK telecommunications distribution sector, where he played a key role in business development and strategic marketing across the UK and Ireland.
In 2016, we founded Gazelle Communications to support and guide small business owners through the often complex world of digital marketing, helping local UK brands strengthen their online presence and improve their visibility in search results.
“Over the past ten years, we’ve designed and developed high-performing websites for businesses in manufacturing, engineering, agri-food, professional services, retail, hospitality and beyond, sectors that represent the very backbone of the Northern Ireland economy.
