Definition
库存 (kù cún) is a noun meaning 'inventory, stock' — the goods a business holds for sale or use. It is nearly the same as 存货 (cún huò), but 存货 can also be a verb ('to stock up'), while 库存 is always a noun. 储备 (chǔ bèi) means 'reserves' (strategic or emergency stock), not routine inventory.
