Take a look at whether or not your theme has an archive-product.php file in the woocommerce folder. This is a copy of the WooCommerce category template (which is displayed by archive-product.php. As long as your template has the do_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop' ); action hook then the woocommerce_catalog_ordering() function should automatically be called with a priority of 30… as it says directly in the code comments. Either your theme templates need to be updated for WooCommerce 2.0 or your theme has intentionally removed the woocommerce_catalog_ordering() function from the woocommerce_before_shop_loop.
<?php
/**

* Override this template by copying it to yourtheme/woocommerce/archive-product.php

* @version 2.0.0

if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) exit; // Exit if accessed directly
get_header('shop'); ?>
<?php
/**

do_action('woocommerce_before_main_content');

Updated based on your template code:
Just because you are using WooCommerce 2.0 doesn’t mean that your theme’s templates were updated. I have had to do that for several clients. However, the action hook do_action( 'woocommerce_before_shop_loop' ); is present.
I would:
- verify whether it is in the markup (view source) and being hidden by CSS
- check all the functions for something that would remove the function:
remove_action('woocommerce_before_shop_loop', 'woocommerce_catalog_ordering', 30); - check all the function for a modified definition of
woocommerce_catalog_ordering() - rename the archive-product.php template to something else temporarily archive-productTEST.php so that WooCommerce will load it’s default template instead
Without access to your site/code that is about all I can suggest.
