The shoe shiner at the Europa Center, Alisan Genccagi, juggles the sponges and pastes from his shoe shine box in front of Soccx in the Europa Center. He is clear proof that even a Berliner with an immigrant background can be a true Berlin original: Because he is not just a shoe shiner at the Europa Center, which would be an unusual profession in Germany anyway, no, he is a master of his trade.

His range of shoe polish alone comprises 180 varieties, which he still imports to Germany from his home country, Turkey.

The customer is king: that is a matter of course at Alisan. That's why you can sit on a throne and have your shoes pampered with almond liqueur-scented shoe creams. Would you also like to treat your best shoes to a wellness stay with Alisan? Then visit him at the Europa Center. The shoe shine service at the Europa Center Service by Alisan is available daily from 10 am.
