About the overview of a company, I see:

  1. Over fifty years ago, we started as designer and supplier of aircraft and missile components.

Would it more gramatically correct if we say:

  1. Over fifty years ago, we started as the designer and supplier of aircraft and missile components.

No, it would not be more correct, because using "the" would imply that the company was the only or the predominant designer. That was hardly the case.

I would use the indefinite article there.

Over fifty years ago, we started as a designer and supplier of aircraft and missile components.
