Find retail space in Berlin with Engel & Völkers

Berlin, the capital city, is famous for its iconic shopping street, the Kurfürstendamm, which attracts millions of tourists every year who appreciate and love the city’s variety. Many prime locations, like the Ku’damm, offer a mix of high-profile shops and heavy foot traffic, making them highly sought after.

Beyond the main shopping streets, Berlin is home to numerous shopping centres across its districts. From KaDeWe and Bikini Berlin to Boulevard Berlin, the city offers endless retail opportunities. Combined with Berlin’s rich history and cultural landmarks, this diversity drives a highly active retail property market. Prime commercial spaces here demand a keen understanding of trends, brands, and buyer behaviour.

Location matters

Unlike other major cities, Berlin’s retail market is concentrated across multiple top streets throughout the city. The six primary “1a” locations are in historic Mitte, City West in Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf, and Steglitz-Zehlendorf. Over 60 additional shopping centres further enrich the city’s retail landscape. This high revenue potential makes Berlin exceptionally attractive to both national and international retailers.
