has slashed prices on his pizza ovens by 30 per cent as he continues efforts to boost sales through his MeMs Agency.

The TV chef, 49, set up the talent management firm four years ago to develop entrepreneurial food and lifestyle projects.

But so far, the firm has attracted only a small number of clients - including Gino himself, an Australian pizza chef and an Italian TV cook.

Now, he’s pushing his own range of pizza ovens through the platform at a discounted rate, including an electric model priced at £314 and a reduced gas version at £244.

His website states: 'Our Biggest Ever Summer Sale is live: 30% off pizza ovens and bundles!⁠

⁠'More heat. More flavour. More time outdoors.'

Gino - who in February last year had his upcoming shows on removed over multiple claims of inappropriate conduct allegations - has been forced to reduce the price.

The impressive Georgian property in the upmarket town of Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, is now up for sale at £2.15million.

The latest reduction was in January after originally being put on the market last June. It is being sold by upmarket estate agents Savills.

It came at the same time he was said to be looking to move to Australia for work projects and after his restaurant empire racked up debts of £7.3million before going into administration.

One source said: 'Gino has found out more than anyone that it is a buyer's market at the moment. It's very unpredictable. He will no doubt have been gutted that he has had to reduce the value.

'It's clear he has not been able to find a buyer who will pay what he wants for it. This is despite Hoddesdon being a really upmarket and trendy area.'
