Andrade is a district of the Rivadavia department in the province of Mendoza, Argentina. It has a single neighbourhood called Cooperativa Andrade, located east of the district on Calle Primavera and the town of Andrade located around the train station in the center of the district.

Its area is 18.25 km². The name of the town came from a family with the same surname who owned land in the place. During colonial times, merchant caravans from Chile to Buenos Aires or vice versa passed through the so-called Andrade post. In the 19th century, the district was called Chilecito. The district is a flat area with a W-E slope whose monotony is only interrupted by the presence of the Tunuyan River in the extreme south.
