Hi,
Create a public shortcut from administrator area to eshop products and edit the access group for this user giving the right permissions.
Relative articles on Elxis wiki :
- Access Manager (ACL) (http://wiki.elxis.org/wiki/Access_Manager_%28ACL%29)
- User Manager (http://wiki.elxis.org/wiki/User_Manager)

Administrator area :
(top menu) Tools -> Shortcuts
or
(Homepage of Administrator area) there is a link :Manage Shortcuts.

- Click Add shortcuts, make it public and at the link field write : index2.php?option=com_eshop&task=products&hidemainmenu=1

Thank you, It works :) , Now the shortcut is public, Is it possible to make a shortcut private for a user?

If this shortcut is set as private then it would be visible only by you. ;D
