Five Elms Capital, a Kansas City, KS-based PE firm, has made an investment in Field Agent. Field Agent allows companies to perform audits and collect market intelligence from a crowdsourced network of 240,000 smartphone-enabled “agents” around the country. The agents determine if products are in stock and on the shelf, perform promotional display audits and check competitor pricing and displays. Five Elms' investment will help the company broaden its solutions and expand into new verticals.
