HVAC/R and foodservice equipment distributor across 200+ locations
Baker Distributing operates a brick-and-mortar distribution network spanning 200+ sales centers across 22 states, moving HVAC/R and foodservice equipment to contractors and commercial customers. The tech stack is pure Microsoft Office and Salesforce—minimal modern infrastructure—while hiring is heavily weighted toward sales roles (61 of 116 open positions) and junior talent (81 of 113 seniority-tracked roles), suggesting a rapid, entry-level scaling effort. Active projects around dealer recruitment, training programs, and Salesforce dashboards indicate internal push to systematize what is likely a relationship-driven, location-based sales model.
