Is there a way to know which manufacturer made your MBP display ?

SwitchResX may be able to export the EDID. The EDID may contain some panel model info strings in Apple Vendor Specific Data Blocks. I don't know if Apple is still doing that with M1 Macs.

Yes, it's possible.
Open ColorSync Utility -> open Computer/Displays/Colour LCD from the left panel -> Open profile (top right corner)-> NO.17 Apple display make and model information.

Not there, open No.17 Apple display make and model information.
For e.g. mine is : Manufacturer 00000610 which seems to be Samsung after checking it on Google.

610 is Apple. That is just one piece of info from the EDID. Use SwitchResX to get the full EDID. There may be more info related to the panel.

do you have this in the extension block on your mbp ?

I think I have EDIDs from many Macs with built-in displays (iMac, MacBook Air, MacBook, MacBook Pro). You can find EDIDs in the linuxhw EDID repository.
https://github.com/linuxhw/EDID
The /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/Icons.plist file will match icons to displays.
The icons are in the Apple vendor folder at /System/Library/Displays/Contents/Resources/Overrides/DisplayVendorID-610

Is there a way to know which manufacturer made your MBP display ?
