I have several shapefiles that I would like to import into several databases in order to measure the performance of queries, one of them is Redis. I tried to convert shapefile to CSV format, but I'm stuck on it.
Here is an example of a fragment of such a CSV file (builtups.csv):

student@student:~/Downloads/json/csv$ head -2 < builtups.csv 
WKT,cat,NAME,F_CODE
"POLYGON ((-1381208.93176959 4018867.04896281,-1381545.4605916 4020028.58540091,-1379543.95554302 4021140.67154976,-1379854.59452705 4021569.00939107,-1380453.82420181 4021984.78053386,-1380620.70731434 4022565.37636904,-1377122.99898975 4022708.4072678,-1376019.8736383 4020549.48804913,-1381208.93176959 4018867.04896281))",1,BETHEL,Built-Up Area

Another example:

 student@student:~/Downloads/json/csv$ head < popp.csv 
WKT,cat,F_CODEDESC,F_CODE,TYPE
"POINT (-1049809.14913148 6635460.69190277)",1.000,Building,AL015,CABIN
"POINT (441308.810636207 6573953.19546494)",2.000,Building,AL015,CABINS
"POINT (340199.412944192 6540038.90039579)",3.000,Building,AL015,CABIN
"POINT (191579.478604275 6529955.3502767)",4.000,Building,AL015,CABIN

Does Redis geo have the capability for storing polygons? If yes, how to import those CSV files to Redis? If not, how do I avoid the problem?

GEOADD, GEODIST, GEOHASH, GEOPOS, GEORADIUS and GEORADIUSBYMEMBER are the only Redis geo-related commands that I'm aware of, and none of them applies to polygons (except for the particular case of bounding boxes, and they are not stored anyway).

That said, nothing prevents you from storing WKT polygons as text strings, or, alternatively, convert the original shapefile polygons to GeoJson and store them as regular JSON objects via Rejson, a Json datatype for Redis,
