There's plenty of tutorials for that kind of stuff out there, just search for "install ftp server on centos 7"

 

Here's some examples:

You can just use FTP over SSH natively if you're the only user: https://www.ssh.com/academy/ssh/ftp

Its natively supported so no need for any packages. It's best to use key authentication rather than plain passwords for securing ftp. e.g https://tidbits.com/2021/07/18/upgrade-your-file-transfer-security-with-encryption-keys/

 

If its going to be a shared FTP though (e.g you need a public ftp site, or user management/quotas/etc...) then as recommended above, vsftpd is a good go to.
