We build and quantify a model where rms choose\nprices taking into acc ount their eect on the evolution of their\ncustomer base\, and customers f ace frictions to reallocate to other\nrms. The model accounts for salient features of retail price data\,\nsuch as the high kurtosis of the price di stribution and the low\npass-through of cost shocks. We also study aggrega te dynamics in our\nframework and show that microfounding customer realloc ation leads to a\ncountercyclical response of markups to demand shocks.
