Andrea Klein

Andrea Klein founded Rand 30 years ago with a passion for technology, an exciting industry she knew would contribute advancements that would make a true difference in the world for generations. With her love for people and vision of a better, greener planet, she built the company based on trust, integrity and an unwavering commitment to superior product quality, leading-edge innovation and customer satisfaction.

These guiding principles have been the foundation upon which Rand Technology has grown into the venerated, industry-leading, global supply chain company it is today. With a standard of excellence that is second-to-none, Rand supports Fortune 500 companies with sales, purchasing, engineering, testing, and logistics from offices across five continents. It is a sophisticated, full-service technology hardware supply chain company offering a comprehensive suite of services tosupport NPI, production, global services, and asset recovery that empower clients to achieve bottom line growth in all market conditions.

With a commitment to socially responsible, sustainable practices, Andrea is widely regarded as one of the industry’s most innovative leaders. She is laser-focused on a technology-driven future that assures inclusiveness and diversity in a workplace where employees, partners, customers, vendors, and others are valued, respected, and working toward a common objective of responsible, environmentally conscious IT asset management.

Considering the company’s immense success as the first and only 100-percent woman-owned, global independent distribution company, it is an understatement to say Andrea is well ahead of her time. She hopes her story will inspire other women to break through barriers that have traditionally limited their professional opportunities. To that end, she makes frequent presentations to young women and girls at schools, civic organizations and charitable events urging them to follow their hearts and pursue career paths that fulfill their passions.
