The leader of GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) is not a specific company, as GMO refers to a technology used by various agricultural and biotech firms. However, companies like Monsanto (now part of Bayer), Syngenta, and DuPont have been prominent players in the development and commercialization of GMO crops. Their innovations have significantly influenced modern agriculture by improving crop yield, resistance to pests, and adaptability to environmental conditions.
There are many companies that produce GMOs, but the leading company is Monsanto.
If you are a farmer, you know the corn you are gowing is GMO because you buy seeds that are known to be GMO. If you are gowing non-GMO varieties, you do not know if GMO vaieties have cross pollinated with your corn unless you get it tested. If you are a consumer, you do not know if the corn or processed foods containing corn is GMO unless it is labeled as such. In the United States GMO foods are not labeled.
GMO stands for genetically modified organism. To confirm the GMO status of the sample, it must be labeled as GMO by the producers.
There are people who will say GMO foods are closely regulated, but the FDA has declared them to be "substantially equivalent" to their non GMO equivalents. They have a voluntary consultation process for the developing company to consult with them before new GMO varieties are approved, which is not actually regulating them at all. The approval process for genetically modified animals appears to be much tighter.

I work for a company here in the United States that grows and sells purple corn. All of our corn is non-gmo organic or non-gmo non organic.

GMO foods asummably have the same vitamins as the equivalent non-GMO foods.
The first genetically modified organism (GMO) was a tobacco plant created by scientists working for the biotechnology company Monsanto in 1983. They introduced a gene from a soil bacteria into the tobacco plant to make it resistant to antibiotics.

GMO corn and soy are no more productive than non-GMO corn and soy.

As far as is known, raisins are not GMO.
Since GMO ingredients are not labeled, it is difficult to know if the canola oil in Cape Cod potato chips is GMO. It is safe to assume the oil is GMO since most of the canola grown in the United States and Canada is GMO.
