The Affinity applications provide only a subset of the available Pantone color palettes. The Affinity Store documents the ones that are included at https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/designer/full-feature-list/ which shows:

Pantone^® Color Matching

• PANTONE^® Goe^™
• PANTONE^® GoeBridge^™
• PANTONE^®+ Formula Guide Solid (V2)
• PANTONE^®+ CMYK
• PANTONE^®+ Color Bridge (V2)
• PANTONE^®+ Metallic, Neon, and Pastels
• Coated and uncoated variants

I see all of those in my copy of Designer (on Windows), and they should be present on yours, too, in the Swatches panel. But if your printing company wants a different one than those you will need to obtain it somewhere else, and add it to Designer yourself.

The PANTONE^®+ Formula Guide Solid (V2) uses the same naming convention as the Solid Coated book that everyone in the printing industry is used to seeing with the "C" suffix.
