My wife got the iPhone 4s and when backed up with her old one the app store app

Got the new iPhone 4s and when backed up with my old one (one of the first) the app store & other apps disappear, can someone advise?

If they are pre-installed apps they cannot be deleted so they may have inadvertently moved it onto another screen or into a folder, Utilities appears to be a common folder so check to see if that has been created.  Check all screens and folders and do a search in Spotlight, it will tell you if the apps are still on your iPhone but unfortunately not where they are. If you find them on one or your screens or in a folder, press the icon until it wiggles and then drag it back to where you want it.  I would also suggest you check restrictions, particularly as you mention the app store icon - Settings>General>Restrictions>Installing Apps & Deleting Apps>ON. Alternatively you can reset your home screen in Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
