Restrict product by role on WooCommerce

Question

I need to lock some woocommerce products by category to enable purchasing for "shareholders" role only. How can I do so?

You can remove the Add to cart button from those category products and display a message that it can be bought by shareholders only — Logan Young, Oct 21 '17 at 18:32

    if( isset( $common_ids ) && $common_ids != null ) {
        $user = wp_get_current_user();
        $roles = $user->roles;
        if( empty($roles) || !in_array('shareholders', $roles) ) {

            // Get Available variations?
            $get_variations = sizeof( $product->get_children() ) <= apply_filters( 'woocommerce_ajax_variation_threshold', 30, $product );

            // Load the template
            wc_get_template( 'single-product/add-to-cart/variable.php', array(
                'available_variations' => $get_variations ? $product->get_available_variations() : false,
                'attributes'           => $product->get_variation_attributes(),
