This is a script on the part, so there is no such thing as LocalPlayer. Only in LocalScripts.
Try this instead:
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
player.PlayerGui.ShopGui.Frame.Visible = true
end)

You copied my answer, raid6n. I made a very simple mistake, you downvoted me without telling me why and duplicated it, instead of making a simple comment correcting the ancestry of PlayerGui. You're the one being childish. nikoviking 236 — 4y

You cannot use LocalPlayer in a server script, but you can use getplayerfromcharacter(hit.parent).
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
local player = game.Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(hit.Parent)
player.PlayerGui.ShopGui.Frame.Visible = true
end)
