Fullwood JOZ, which has a site at Grange Road in Ellesmere, said it had decided it was "no longer viable" to operate its business the "same way" from its Shropshire base.
The company, which makes automated milking systems, said its 'operational activities' would be moving to the Netherlands.
It has not confirmed how many jobs will be lost as a result of the move but said that its customer and technical teams would remain in Shropshire, and would move to a new site in Ellesmere.
North Shropshire's Liberal Democrat MP, Helen Morgan, said she was disappointed at the move and had pressed the company over ensuring it supports those who lose their jobs.
