Morphology
The meaning 'requirements or items a person wants or needs to buy when shopping' is directly and compositionally derived from 'shopping' (buying goods) + 'needs' (necessary things). This is a common, transparent noun phrase with clear cross-linguistic parallels, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents should be able to understand it.
Etymology
Shopping needs comes from the simple picture of making a list of what you must buy: your shopping list of needs, like milk or bread. That's why it means the 'items to buy' or 'requirements' someone has when they go shopping.
