This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The shop page in english doesn't display products.
Solution:
The issue was caused by the 'Premmerce Permalink Manager for WooCommerce' plugin. When I deactivated this plugin, the shop page started working correctly.
