First, /var/run is obsolete, you should use /run instead (/var/run is a
symlink to /run ).

To create the directory, you should have tmpfiles in your package to
create it at install time and for each reboot.

Everything should be explained in 
https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Systemd_packaging_guidelines 
(Creating files and subdirectories in /var/run and /run section).
