Our story is one of transformation.
SNHU began as a two-room accounting school in Manchester, New Hampshire, in 1932. When enrollments outnumbered seats, we built a 300-acre campus. And in 1995, we took our mission global through online programs. It’s a move that changed SNHU (and higher ed) for good.
Today, we’re an industry leader transforming lives at scale — and not just those of our learners. With exceptional benefits and remote roles in 30+ states, we’ve attracted over 13,000 employees who get to do innovative work that excites them.

Back in 1948, Founder Joe Dahm opened Indiana’s first automated carwash, Mike’s Minit Man. A few years later, Joe’s brother Ed Dahm, joined the business. At the time, just 18 carwashes were operating in the United States. Since then, millions of vehicles have passed through the carwash and Crew has become one of the largest carwash companies in the nation.
Still owned by the Dahm Family, Crew Carwash continues to grow and innovate to deliver on our brand promise to provide our customers with “Clean, Fast, and Friendly” service – every day.
Crew Carwash has opened multiple locations throughout Indiana and Minnesota and continues to grow in the Midwest. The name Crew honors our dedicated and talented crew members who work hard to earn your trust. We believe much of our success stems directly from treating our customers to the best possible experience every time they visit.
As our Founder, Joe Dahm often said, “We’re really in the people business, we just happen to wash cars.”
