Dan Baker, President

Equipment Sales

651-288-4862

I have been part of MCC since 1984. My customers know I want them to be successful. If my products/advice can't help them make more money, I haven't done my job. Their success is my success.

When talking to coin laundry owners for the past 15 years, I have never heard one tell me that they have regretted raising their vend prices. Also, I have never had one owner tell me they have too many large machines.

I enjoy golfing, travelling, exploring the ever-growing beer aisle at Ray's Liquor, and watching the Packers beat the Bears – did I mention spending time with my wife and kids?

I have worked at Minnesota Chemical since 2008. Prior to my present on-premise-laundry and central laundry equipment sales focus, I worked in other areas of our business, including supply sales and vended laundry sales. My goal is to help you run the best laundry you can by listening to you, understanding your situation and your needs. I like to help prevent potential problems you may not see. 

I work with healthcare laundries, hospitality laundries, central laundries, dry cleaners, and more. Let me know how I can help you!

Supply Sales

I have been with MCC since 1994. I bring industry perspective of a broad view to find solutions to problems. I have excellent communication skills with a large catalogue of industry-leading manufacturers products to help your operation.

I encourage my clients to always find the simplest solution to a problem. Use care tags wisely. Wet-clean spandex. Ink removal with the proper products and procedures makes it more efficient and effective.

Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, biking, playing golf and racket ball, and spending time with my family.

Equipment Sales

I have been with MCC since 2016, and I work to make your laundry worry-free. When planning new or updating an existing laundry, I work with you every step of the way, making sure your equipment is the correct fit for your situation. I strive to reach out and get you an answer the same day for all your equipment related questions even after work hours via email. I have visited many equipment manufacturing plants and bring what I learn to our end-users to educate and keep laundries up-to-date with the latest news in the industry.

I work mainly in Hospitality, Healthcare, and Dry Cleaning plants across the Midwest. I am also a proud member of the local chapter of the Minnesota Cleaners Association.

Outside of work, I enjoy playing with my kids, visiting family, taking road trips, learning more about technology, and remodelling my home.
