About ME

Since 2006, I, Alejandra Mabel Recalde have been at the helm of Avarast.com and have since been joined by a talented team of professionals from the worlds of marketing, design, development and interactive media. Great design is made even better when combined with bespoke technology; this is my passion and how we create solutions that exceed my clients' objectives. I’m proud to work with businesses of all sizes, from start ups to large multinationals, both in Sheffield and across the USA on web, print and digital projects.

Our values

We like to keep things simple, so everything we do fulfils these three values:

A great service should be for everyone, all the time

There's always a friendly and knowledgeable member of our team to speak to about your project. I have a complete ban on jargon and talk to customers like humans, not robots.

Everything we do has a measured result

There's no point creating something if we can’t measure how well it’s working for our customers. By using the latest tracking technology, we can make sure that your project is cost effective and you receive the maximum return on investment.

Quality work and happy customers are what we strive for

My goal is to produce work which our customers love and which we can be proud of. If we don’t think what we’ve created is fantastic and exactly right for you, I’ll keep working on it until it is.

Sheffield culture

We're based in Sheffield which is famous for its seven hills, its music, its steel heritage and, of course, Henderson’s Relish. The steel city’s history is alive in our offices as we work from the former John Watts cutlery works, a Grade II listed building dating back to 1765. The building is a short walk from the city centre and as it’s recently been refurbished, it’s a great place for our clients to see what we do and maybe even partake in a game of table tennis.
