In this paper, we investigate a possibility to cause supersymmetry breaking with background modulus fields in product-group gauge theories. The vacuum expectation values of these moduli are found to satisfy several relations and the moduli dependences of the action are fixed by consistency of the model. With this action, we calculate the mass spectrum of vector and matter multiplets up to one-loop order of perturbation theory. As an application of the result, it is found that various properties of higher-dimensional supersymmetry breaking are well captured in corresponding limits in the moduli space. In particular, we have finite radiative corrections to Higgs masses in the case that is closely related to the boundary condition breaking of supersymmetry.
