Firstly, there is no need for creating #temp1 table before.
because you are using "Select * into" that already create table within it.
Suppose type this note as a comment, but I don't have enough reputation score.
The reason of
Invalid object name '#temp1'
is: the variable #sql is NULL because #temp1 is not created yet via "Select * into" clause.
so append selecting from #temp1 within dynamic sql as the following:
SELECT #sql = N'--
SELECT * into #temp1
FROM (
SELECT [BranchID],
[SubInventory],
[Product],
[Stock]
FROM #MyTempTable
WHERE [BranchName] = ''' +#BranchName +'''
) as t
PIVOT (
MAX([Stock]) FOR [SubInventory] IN ('+STUFF(#columns,1,1,'')+')
) as pvt
select * from #temp1 '
EXEC sp_executesql #sql
