Hi,
I am wondering if anybody ever come across any implementation of
product integral in R? As far as I googled, I haven't come across any
package. Is there any? Thank you.

Survival analysis is essentially an inferential application of product
integrals. Note the similarity of the third expression labeled "Type 1":
=\exp\left(\int_a^b \ln f(x) \, dx\right)
... to the definition of the survival function in continuous time
(different only in the sign of the argument). (And the Kaplan-Meier
function is a discrete time product integral.)
