I am trying maximize revenue over a number of weeks with a non-linear constraint.

I have 27 weeks over which I want to maximize revenue.
I have a maximum price I can charge and price is a non-linear function of quantity.
I have a maximum quantity of goods I can sell.
I want to find the optimal quantity of goods to sell in each week.

Currently I am using fmincon to minimize the negative of the revenue function but I have read that fmincon is not good at minimizing in terms of multiple variables (27 choices of quantity in this example). Is there a different function I can use?
