    Hello , 

    1: make a relationship between the 2 tables :  table 1 should be unique as ( product should not be duplicated ) , table 2 it should have Product column ( this can me duplicated as much as you want )  , the relationship shoul go 1 to many 

    2 : in report view just make a table and drop the product from the first table in the columns ( dont sumarize it ) , and product from the table 2 and set it as count 

    this is an aproach to make a table 
    second approach : 

    in table 1 that is unique make a new calculated column as per the image attached : 
    count = countrows(relatedtable(table 2 )) 

    Please accept as a solution if it works with you and a kudo is appreciated . 
    * share some sample file if you didnt figure it out 


    Thanks ,
