For a B2B store, if you want buyers and guest users to see only categories that have entitled products, contact Salesforce customer support to enable this functionality. To view a category or its descendent categories, the buyer or guest user must have entitlement to at least one product within the category. If a buyer has a direct link to a category that isn’t entitled, the category still appears but doesn’t show any products.
