The inventory of cold chain logistics has always been a bottleneck restricting the development of cold chain enterprises. Temperature has a significant impact on cold chain logistics. Taking the secondary cold chain inventory composed of one supplier and one retailer as the research object, the inventory holding cost model of Weibull function with temperature-dominated metamorphism with three-parameter distribution was constructed. The optimal inventory strategy was determined from the perspective of minimum system cost. Through the case analysis, the correctness of the inventory strategy was verified, and the decision-making reference for the inventory decision makers in this mode was provided.
