AI agent reach target at a fixed position

Hello all,

I keep on editing this question hopping it will become more answerable.

I have a scene of a supermarket. Once my user approaches a shelf, the AI is approaching the user. My quest here, is to have the AI on a fixed position by the user, as for right now it varies. My idea was to use the x,z position of the user, and have the AI stand on the same x but different z positions. I must say, that I have more than just one AI, and I need them to stand in one line with the user. So perhaps you'd suggest another approach.

here's a piece of C# script:

 public void SpecificPoint(Vector3 target, Transform player)
     {
         alreadyPicked = false;
         enRoute = true;
         playerTransform = player;
         targetLocation = target;
 
         initialPlayerDistanceFromShelf = Vector3.Distance(targetLocation, playerTransform.position);
 
         shopper.navMeshAgent.destination = targetLocation;
  
         shopper.animator.SetBool("Walk", true);
     }

I've tried transform.Translate but this would have the AI suddenly appear by the user.
