Count of stores that are selling only 1 product for a specific date range.

I have been struggling with this question for a few days. I can not share the data as it is not my data. To best try to explain the data. I have an extensive data set with columns of Date, Store number, and Product number. 

 

I need to know how many stores only have 1-9 products and have the ability to slice by date. Any suggestions are appreciated.

 

I need to generate a table that looks something similar to the table below:
