Explanation:
off the shelf son los bienes o mercaderías disponibles para la venta, o en existencia en los comercios. Igualmente no estoy muy segura.

que no están a la vista del cliente


Explanation:
Por esto están off-the-shelf, porque no están mostrados en las estanterías de las tiendas sino que hay que pedirlos.

productos con precios


Explanation:
It has been my experience in the Us that "off-the-shelf" means the same as over-the-counter. These are products that require no prescription, (in the case of medications etc.,) are in stock, (no order for future collection required) and in a self-serve establishment such as a supermarket, convenience store or other type retail location. So:

productos con precios competitivos y siempre disponibles en anaquel.

or

siempre disponibles en estantería

agree  Adriana Barrós Tomé: I would not include "en anaquel" or "en estantería". I think that saying siempre disponibles is enough.
